Site Now Fully Migrated + Latest News From The Community

Dear Jolla Community,

This is just a brief inhouse post to say many apologies for all the downtime experienced over the past few days here – I’ve been working day and night to try and minimise time where the site was inaccessible, staying up to until the wee hours of the morning for the past few weeks.   The good news is that everything is back to relative normality and www.jollatides.com is back to being the correct URL to find us as it was before in case you got confused in the commotion! :-)

With the surge of Jolla-related news recently, I hope everyone is still buzzing like I am!  I’m finding to help sustain the buzz or just connect with fellow fans, our ‘Community Port’ is gathering some rather nice momentum where we are sharing life as fellow (soon to be) Jollans together and for me, this helps focus the mind when impatience inevitably kicks in!  I almost feel like an expectant parent again! :-D

If you haven’t already visited the Community Port, you can access it by clicking the ‘Community’ tab in the menu or alternatively using the following URL: www.jollatides.com/forums

COMMUNITY PORT BREAKING NEWS:

  • In case you missed it, we are running our very own ‘I am the other half’ t-shirt competition (many thanks to Jolla!) which you can learn more about in the following thread here: JollaTides T-Shirt Competition
  • We’ve had some great early discussion threads kick-off from new forum members Andrei and Knux which will set the brain cogs in motion.  Andrei has started the Sailfish 101 thread which will help new and established developers alike find their feet with Sailfish OS.  And Knux has started a thought-provoking thread on Google and the implications of Android compatibility for Sailfish in todays one Google vision world which seems to be a hot topic at the moment all round.
  • Earlier on we also had graphic designer, Morpog, pop in and upload some great Sailfish icon artwork which will no doubt help Developers get to where they’re going just that little bit quicker.  I stress again, Jolla Community = #Unlike!

So that’s the latest news from the Community Port – of course if you have any constructive criticisms or feedback you’d like to give, you are more than welcome to let us know here.

I just want to also say that I haven’t forgotten about the ‘Other Half Survey’ we were in the middle of compiling a few weeks ago.  Things started to get slightly more complicated and I’ve since been to-ing and fro-ing with Harri from Jolla and the Maemo community to work out a rough feasibility indication for the concept designs you all helped conceive so that we don’t end up voting on vaporware.   With the last few weeks being a write-off and the lead up to the launch being fairly busy, I’ll try and make some time when I can but can’t promise exactly when! :-)

With that all said, what a week it’s been for us all and I’m sure like me, you probably can’t contain your excitement for the coming launch on the 27th November – it’s going to be a night to remember for sure!

Thanks to all of you,

Timo x
