I would like to have a discussion involving Pine64, and the various OSs' communities.
We need to decide on how we can get as many users access to the many great user made programs.
At this point flatpak is probably the solution as it crosses OSs.
Most of the OSs, in particular I am familiar with Mobian, there is a strict vetting and requirements to support any submitted apps for their official repos.
We need something which approximates the setup for Maemo though in that case we had single OS and single hardware platform; there were 4 levels of repo for maemo5, the official OVI store, maemo extras, extras testing, and extras devel; the OVI/OTA updates official repo was replaced by a community seamless software update service.
This is an ongoing request for comment until we have established a reasonable way to accept pinephone/pinetab community software community contributions across as many OSs as possible.
What creative way would you suggest we incorporate pine community contributed software?
