Ubports: Ubuntu for Phones raises from the ashes
The Ubuntu for Phones project, which was driven by Canonical until April 2017, has found a new life thanks to the community. Now named Ubports, the effort continues to progress in all fronts: development of the OS, infrastructure, porting to new hardware devices, establishing a foundation. This talk will present an architectural overview of how Ubports works on phones and tablets, will illustrate the major progresses achieved since the community took over the project and will shed some light on what expects us in the near future.
