If flatpaks ask #geoclue for location service access #phosh can now handle that as a #geoclue agent (which became useful after fixing that for recent kernels using cgroupv2 (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/geoclue/geoclue/-/merge_requests/81):
This is in it's infancy but here's the first bits of #GObjectIntrospection for #Erlang using a c-node:
libhandy 1.2 just got released! 🎉 It comes with new cool widgets and many fixes, more at https://adrienplazas.com/blog/2021/03/12/libhandy-1-2.html.
I've tagged #ldapsp 0.0.4 (https://bit.ly/2PQyjxk). It's a #smartproxy for the #foreman to create host #ldap entries written in #erlang.
Situation improves further when bringing the #arm64 #pixman optimizations forward to #PureOS #Byzantium (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pixman/pixman/-/merge_requests/20) which were only in amber-phone and which everyone needs to pull since it's not merged in #pixman upstream.
A weekends quest in finding out how to customize ringtones/sounds on @mobian / the #pinephone and other distros using @purism #feedbackd. Thanks to @agx both for coding it and writing excellent docs from which one could take...

Those running #PureOS #Byzantium can grab #gstreamer debs from https://source.puri.sm/guido.gunther/gst-plugins-bad1.0/pipelines/65100 - it's just a backport of the #gstreamer devs upstream work back to 1.18.3.
#webkit (for #epiphany) needed a small patch (https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/273960/webkit) to leverage the #gstreamer work that accelerates #h264 on the #librem5 (https://social.librem.one/@agx/105799071793016596). Resource usage did drop but not as much as i'd expected so there's more debugging needed.
#phosh 0.9.0 is out 🚀 : https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/releases/v0.9.0
Now supports #GNOME's OSD DBus protocol, indicates microphone hardware kill switch state, fixes around the overview including long-swipes. Requires libhandy >= 1.1.90
My First Week of Librem 5 Convergence
"I put away my personal Librem 13v1 and tested out whether I could replace it with a Librem 5"

This is the jellyfish h264 demo on a #librem5 using the #imx8mq's #hantro VPU.
Using the CPU we take 300% of CPU time, using the VPU instead we take 10% (and even that can be optimized further). Using the VPU also saves ~1.5W of power. Thanks go to the #gstreamer and #linux kernel folks for making this possible!
I got one more change in for GNOME 40: better tab completion in the file manager! It's bothered me for a while now, so I'm especially excited that I got to improve it: https://www.jwestman.net/2021/02/17/files-tab-complete.html
Huge thanks to @antoniof_gnome@twitter.com
for reviewing this just in time for the release!
