Sailfish OS update from Jolla
Fortnight newsletter again. A lot has happened since previous fortnight and a day late. This week Repository roundup takes well deserved break but we do have Harbour news by @vige.
We do have update from fair that we participated here in Stockholm during past days, yesterday we had a Community Meeting here in Stockholm (writing from Stockholm) and updates regarding Jolla Phone and Sailfish OS.
Swedish Public Safety market entry
Digital sovereignty is becoming an increasingly important part also in civil preparedness and public safety. That is why we are partnering with CivSec AB to introduce Sailfish OS, and the Jolla Phone, to the Swedish public safety market. Together with the marvelous CivSec team we spent three days at the Totalförsvarsmässän in Stockholm Älvsjö.
Community Meeting Stockholm
Consider this as a Jolla Phone Roadshow event, first of a kind in the series printed in the T-Shirt. Sailors from the Jolla team were present, and questions and live discussion took place about the Jolla Phone and Sailfish OS. The event was open to everyone and no advance registration was required.
Thank you to everyone who joined the community meeting. We had good conversations, a lot of good fun and enjoyed the company. Thank you for coming, sharing your ideas and giving us feedback.
The event was very successful opening of the Roadshow series and The Flying Horse served us well! Special thanks belongs to everybody helping to organize

Sailfish OS update
We published 5.2.0.20 as a bugfix release mainly addressing some of the issues found in the previous 5.2.0.18 release. Due to those issues we did not publish that release yet to the other devices like originally planned. Fingers crossed that we are good to go and publish 5.2.0.20 to all supported devices.
We had a plan to do a small update release for Jolla Phone during this week but busy week bite us. That said, a small interesting update for Jolla Phone coming up
