New Apertis 17.03 stable release available
by Tracey Green 24 Mar '17

24 Mar '17

Hello everyone, the new Apertis 17.03 stable release is now available! You can find the full release notes at https://wiki.apertis.org/17.03/ReleaseNotes Some highlights from this release: * ARM64 support All the packages in the archive have been rebuilt for the 64bit version of the ARM instruction set. No full images are available at the moment, as no reference hardware has been selected. * Application framework on headless setups Minimal images without HMI now ship the application framework with the Canterbury application manager taking care of running agents. * Mildenhall UI toolkit The major pain points about using the Mindelhall UI toolkit from third-party application have been addressed, making it more reliable and maintainable. * Metadata-based permissions design A first set of use-cases have been collected to provide the foundation for designing a metadata-base permissions system which would save application authors from having to learn the fine details of the AppArmor rules language. * Drop unused components A few old, no longer used components have been dropped to be able to focus on our core values. Some have been deprecated, with the intent of dropping them once all the depending applications and services have been ported to the recommended solutions. The full release notes contain more details about all the work that has been poured in this release: https://wiki.apertis.org/17.03/ReleaseNotes Images are already available for download at https://images.apertis.org/release/17.03/ Thanks to everyone who contributed! -- Kind Regards Tracey Green Project Manager, Collabora Ltd +44 1223 362967 http://www.collabora.co.uk

Apertis 17.06: distribution bootstrap
by Andrew Shadura 16 Mar '17

16 Mar '17

Hello everyone, We’ve been working on branching off Apertis 17.06, and it seems it is ready now. The repositories should be already available, packages should be building, Jenkins has been updated and should be building both packages and images. Please note Apertis 17.06 is in the early development phase, and as changes land there packages may not be installable at all times. If you feel something isn’t working the way it should, don’t hesitate to speak up and report your issues. Please note master branches of Git repositories will now result in builds for/against 17.06; changes targeting 17.03 should go to 17.03 branches we have created in all repositories. -- Cheers, Andrew Shadura --- Collabora Ltd The Platinum Building St John's Innovation Park CB4 0DS, Cambridge, United Kingdom https://www.collabora.co.uk/
