[PureOS] Bits from PureOS | Sad GNOME edition

[Jeremiah C. Foster]

Hi,

Welcome to another bits from PureOS email. Your irregular email for all
things PureOS! Or maybe for _some_ things PureOS. Okay, mostly just
what I've been doing and noticed happening. 

Firstly, I can't make GUADEC despite the fact that my talk has been
approved and I'd really like to go. I just cannot find child care for
my daughter. I would bring her but she starts school on the 28th and
that's the day that there is flatpak hacking, including work on a
store. *sigh*

Secondly, I'd like to point out that our intrepid dak hacker (dacker?)
Matthias has already begun work on a new stable distro called "amber".
This is going to be pretty exciting stuff I think, at least I'm excited
to offer a more stable distro to users who're asking for a more stable
distro;

Thirdly, I've uploaded a couple packages (and am working on a couple
more.) See 
https://lists.puri.sm/pipermail/pureos-changes/2019-August/thread.html
for details but what's happened is I've made some tiny config changes to Gnupg to support the made-in-America Librem Key and pushed a new version of flashrom into PureOS.

I'm trying to upload Lollypop but having some problems getting the orig
taball uploaded, not sure what triggers that even though its in my
.changes file. Hopefully the dak gods will assist.

- There's a meeting being planned for next week to talk about the
design of software.pureos.net
- The download ISO of pureos.net/download has finally been updated to
the image that Matthias created in July
- Lots of meetings this week including a infrastructure meeting which
will hopefully lay the ground work for bringing the work done on L5
into purple.
- We have a patch upstream in Gnupg to add the Librem Key into Debian,
as soon as that package is live we'll no longer need the Gnupg package
I uploaded

That's it for this bits email, as always, feedback welcome.
