Jack, I have a manta 10 (in fact I'm using it to test right now), so I
know the pain. However, I'm most excited about the emulator. It will
level the playing field for people who want to help test and contribute.
I'm working on making it easy to use the emulator to help write and urn
tests, and the engineering team is working on making the emulator better
and easier to run. They want to make it the primary way to write and run
things. This should open it up to even more people, which I am very
excitied about. I know it's been hard for people to help out with ubuntu
touch without a device. This should make the need for a device go away.
I can't speak to specifics about why they changed supported devices, but
I assume it's because the hardware has aged and is difficult to get
ahold of now, while also not being representative of "current" phablet
devices. I'd encourage you to check out the thread and ask your
questions directly there. The engineering team should be able to speak
more directly about it.

I mean aren't we trying to get more people to help us? This is doing

I agree this is a bad move would be more support continuing with
older devices (which a lot) people still own.
