"State of FOSS on mobile"


This is a review of the current state of Free and Open Source Software on Mobile devices. Mobile computing continues to be one of the most conspicuous and rapidly evolving software ecosystems ever, and open source software is at the heart of it - from the Linux kernel, the tooling, languages and libraries needed to write apps, through to devices that run a completely open source stack

We will talk about the changes in the way Google releases AOSP code and how that affects developers of custom ROMs and off-the-shelf devices. We will talk about developments in fully Android-free platforms, and we will talk about hardware support, drawing on voices from across the FOSS mobile community.

The presentation will be of interest to those already involved in the FOSS and mobile communities, and also to those who are just interested to get an overview of the landscape.
