  • Name/IRC nick: JacekJagosz (might not be able to attend)
  • Topic: Do new SFOS versions use the newest device configurations from Sony?
  • Some details about the topic: While investigating this issue I traced it back to Sony’s Lena config, where CPU cores where improperly configured. I discussed it there, and my pull request to fix it was merged immediately. So my question then is, will next SFOS version use this fixed config? Does new version always use newest config (that was available during development), or is it updated only when there was something really important in there?
  • Approx. time needed: 5 min

Which apps are going to be allowed in the store when those APIs become available? Any list of some sort?

Is the Accounts api documented somewhere? I’m curious how hard will be to integrate NextCloud / Google drive / Dropbox to application…

I think it’s incomplete but: Accounts and SSO | Sailfish OS Documentation and Accounts SSO · GitLab ?

EDIT: https://accounts-sso.gitlab.io/

This is very much personal and not official advice, but you could also check inside /usr/lib64/qt5/qml/Sailfish/Accounts/ to get an idea of things, until better documentation is available.
