| T42 | <m_aurel> We uzse components from Asia. The essential SoC is from Mediatek located in Taiwan. So far I know the last German chip for mobile phones has been a bluetooth chip from Infineon. | 10:40 |

| T42 | <Sam %lastname%> What SoC model are you targeting? | 10:41 |
| T42 | <m_aurel> @Thaodan [The issue is you can't control and modify AOSP …], That'S the reason why we are committed to an independed operation systen. But we just need to start and we have chosen AOSP for two reasons: | 10:47 |
| T42 | <m_aurel> 1. Almost all of the people in our focus group said in the interviews that they either don't want to or can't do without certain Android Apps. For these consumers, AOSP without Google Apps and Services is a first step toward more privacy. | 10:47 |
| T42 | <m_aurel> 2. It is a question of available capital to start right away with an alternative operating system. A hardware adoption that satisfies consumers is expensive. | 10:47 |
| T42 | <m_aurel> We're going step by step. We have already started with the hardware adaptation for Ubuntu Touch and Sailfish OS. The latter we can not advertise for licensing reasons. But also a hardware adaptation is only an intermediate step. In order to fully guarantee data protection, we have to use open source drivers and we need solutions for s | 10:47 |

| T42 | <Thaodan> @m_aurel [That'S the reason why we are committed to an i …], I understand the reasons however that still cling to closed apps wich mostly cling to closed of systems all of them are workarounds. IMHO Jolla should make License that are just accepted kind of a grey area offcial but without support from jolla. | 18:08 |
| T42 | <Thaodan> Which AOSP base do you use? I'm in the beginning of porting AOSP 10. | 18:09 |
| T42 | <Thaodan> But great to have someone from the local area. Remmscheid is not far away from me. | 18:10 |
| T42 | <m_aurel> @Thaodan [I understand the reasons however that still cl …], I agree. Therefore I think about publishing our complete code in particular the own parts of the Volla OS. We also wand to select FOSS core apps for our AOSP based systems. The operation system is open source anyway. | 20:50 |
| T42 | <m_aurel> I also totally agree to your further note: Jolla might be successfull in Russia, but I'm afrraid that the license strategy is kindly spoken not the best to establish Sailfish OS. I would like to see a business model similar to Red Hat. They offer a paid Linux distribution for enterrises with professional services and support and also | 20:50 |
| T42 | as free one. | 20:50 |
| T42 | <m_aurel> @Thaodan [Which AOSP base do you use? I'm in the beginni …], Currently we have the BSP for Android 9, therefore we'll use AOSP 9 for now. This may change during the project. | 20:51 |
| T42 | <m_aurel> @Thaodan [But great to have someone from the local area. …], Nice to hear that. You are welcome to visit our 2nd community days next spring in Remscheid: http://volla.online/blog/ | 20:52 |
