  (sledges, 08:00:30)
  * Björn Bidar - Sailor @ Jolla  (Thaodan, 08:01:37)
  * Otto Mäkelä - community  (ExTechOp, 08:01:40)
  * Simonas Leleiva -- privateer for Jolla  (sledges, 08:01:51)

  * Ville Nummela - Sailor @ Jolla  (ViGe, 08:02:25)
  * Andrew Branson - Sailor@Jolla  (abr, 08:02:46)
  * David Llewellyn-Jones - sailor @ Jolla  (flypig, 08:03:51)
  * Lukáš Karas - community, developer  (karry, 08:04:27)

* Pure Maps - just one major feature remaining (5 min -- asked by
  ddobrev)  (sledges, 08:05:47)
  * <ddobrev> Selection of routes is, in my opinion, the only remaining
    feature a fully functional mapping application needs that Pure Maps
    does not yet have. Let's discuss how Jolla can help turn it into its
    official built-in mapping application with @rinigus 's blessing.
    (sledges, 08:06:03)
  * <Jolla> We agree with community this question was asked recently and
    the state still stays.  (sledges, 08:16:09)
  * LINK: https://github.com/rinigus/pure-maps/issues/58   (ddobrev,
    08:24:39)
  * <ViGe> That reminds me that we should update the list of recommended
    apps in Jolla Store some day, it's been a while since we have done
    that...  (sledges, 08:25:16)
  * <ViGe> we have already bumped Qt Location API as high as we can
    before updating to a more recent Qt version  (sledges, 08:25:21)
  * possibility to resurrect old Sailfish Maps, but keys/subscriptions
    will still be an issue to think through, regardless of a chosen app
    (sledges, 08:27:00)

* Bluetooth support in Android (5 min -- asked by ddobrev)  (sledges,
  08:33:43)
  * <ddobrev> It's been a few months since I last brought it up -- let's
    see what the progress is.  (sledges, 08:33:47)
  * <Jolla> Sorry no update to give in Bluetooth area, focus has been on
    other topics during the autumn.  (sledges, 08:33:56)

* Old Qt in the SDK (10 min -- asked by ddobrev)  (sledges, 08:41:25)
  * <ddobrev> Again an old (pun intended) topic but there are few new
    problems, rather the old ones stay unresolved. Qt 5.6 is
    unacceptably old for decent application development which dooms the
    Sailfish SDK to a slow death.  (sledges, 08:41:29)
  * <Jolla> We have Qt upgrade on the roadmap, but no update to give on
    short term.  (sledges, 08:41:33)

* Status of VoLTE (5 min -- asked by keeperofthekeys)  (sledges,
  08:55:44)
  * <keeperofthekeys> I just received a sunset message from my provider
    that all 2G and 3G networks in my country will be closed down (as
    per a govt decision) in the not too distant future and that I will
    need a phone supporting VoLTE to be able to continue making calls.
    (sledges, 08:55:51)
  * <keeperofthekeys> So what is the status of this feature that has
    been "coming soon" almost since the JP1? For me this now changed
    from "nice to have" to "mandatory".  (sledges, 08:56:03)
  * <Jolla> VoLTE may have earlier appeared on some public roadmaps, but
    plans change. We have been aware of the importance of VoLTE, but
    this year has been really been the first time we have had a chance
    to commit proper resources to developing VoLTE support.  (sledges,
    08:56:20)
  * <Jolla> The initial target is to enable VoLTE for Sony Xperia 10 II
    and III. We have been working on brand new telephony adaptation with
    the first priority to get on the feature parity with the existing
    devices. The work has been progressing steadily and the target is
    still to get VoLTE out during early 2022.  (sledges, 08:56:38)
