Hello everyone! Seeing that the number of our official touch devices keeps increasing, we decided to take a look at the various stable touch channels we provide.
As some of you know, we ship various channels for various devices on various stages of 'readiness' [1]. The scheme we use also provides specific channels based on the custom tarball (custom content) used. Some of those, for certain devices, are not really used anywayere as there are other main channels that are recommended. The channel-device combinations we have in mind are: ubuntu-touch/stable/ubuntu krillin ubuntu-touch/stable/ubuntu vegetahd ubuntu-touch/stable/ubuntu arale All krillin, vegetahd and arale devices have their own channels in bq-aquaris.en and meizu.en channels. The ubuntu channels were supposed to have images with vanilla custom tarballs, but due to the lack of time we did not promote any images there for a very long time - so those are not really supported. Also, basically anyone using any other channel can customize their phones at will. The plan is to remove the krillin, vegetahd and arale devices from ubuntu-touch/stable/ubuntu in the nearest day. We have checked that the number of users is near-zero (~5), but before we proceed we wanted to send out an announcement. Remember that we're talking here about stable - no changes will be made to the rc-proposed, rc, devel-proposed and devel channels. Thank you.
