What impresses me the most is that they took the Telepathy messenger framework and revived it - hopefully that work can be eventually backported to KDE where it started on.

Telepathy is super cool. Just recently I've wondered whether I could get it running with modern software.

Same - the KDE accounts system feels so empty without it!

Happy to see my work in moving from ZSH scripts to debos was finished!

I lacked time and energy to do it all myself, but now it's done.

Bow that Maemo Leste and Mobian use the same system for bulding images, it should be a lot easier to support a device in one distro that is supported in the other.

If I had enough time for another project, I'd try porting Maemo Leste to the Pixel 3a now...

Just noticed Pixel 3a is supported now! Nice!

That was one of my goals when I started work on the build system. :)

The list of improvements is incredible, almost to long for a single news post.

Calls working more and more reliably, navigation app with steps which runs even on the ancient and still awesome N900, build system migration and the list goes on and on. And they don't even mention most of the bug fixes. All that done by a few, very talented and dedicated people.

I wish I had time to contribute. And maybe I will have once the winter comes.
