Evangelos Ribeiro Tzaras presented today at FOSDEM on the latest work around Phosh, the mobile phone user interface / Wayland shell project for mobile Linux environments. Phosh has been making steady progress and has more features out on the horizon.

Phosh has been advancing a lot in part thanks to NLnet funding for various initiatives such as cell broadcast support. There has also been work on improved power management / energy efficiency, per-country emergency numbers, sandboxed thumbnails, lockscreen wallpapers, auto brightness, and more.
