Upcoming?

What are the WP guidelines for software that does not actually exist yet? Feels like it strays into some disallowed territory. Also, the article makes inappropriate use of present tense verbs. - Frankie1969 (talk) 16:03, 27 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

As long as the article's subject meets WP:GNG and doesn't violate WP:CRYSTAL, there's no requirement that software has to be released before an article can be made. However, I'm not seeing any inappropriate use of present tense verbs, but maybe I'm overlooking something? - Sudo Ghost 16:18, 27 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The software does exist (see the [http://youtu.be/3pZUCKt0RKc videos]), just not publicly. I don't have an issue with an article about non-released software - but I don't like it being called Open-source until it is actually released - especially since it's been a while since it was announced, and there's no public ETA. It should say 'expected to be Free / Open-source', and the licence should be omitted or be 'expected to be GPLv3 and LGPLv3'. - JamesHaigh (talk) 09:29, 10 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Android at UDS

A very small blurb about Android appearing at the UDS conference: http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-r/meeting/21280/foundations-r-android-image-builds/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.175.182.141 (talk) 18:08, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Time to rename article

Since it's clear that Ubuntu for Android was the first step in making Ubuntu for phones, should we now rename the article? --Walter Görlitz (talk) 23:47, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

And we'll have to rewrite the article to reflect the new direction of the project. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:03, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ubuntu

Hi. Could you clarify in what way the new Ubuntu phone UI is based on Ubuntu for Android? Thanks. – Steel 23:47, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please read what you deleted. You'll see "The Ubuntu for Android project, as said, is the first step for this new phone OS." --Walter Görlitz (talk) 23:53, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
