[libreplanet-discuss] Libre Smart Phone?

[Mary-Anne Wolf]

According to 
https://www.techworm.net/2017/12/mandrake-linux-founder-launches-google-free-android-os.html
 , "Gael Duval, a former Linux developer and creator of now defunct but once 
hugely popular Mandrake Linux (later known as Mandriva Linux), has developed an 
open-source version of Android that is not connected to Google...Basically, 
just a fork on LineageOS, an open source Android distribution, eelo will be 
more than just a mobile operating system and have its own associated 
web-services such as email, cloud storage and online office tools. It will 
focus greatly on personal data and privacy."


There is a link to a kickstarter in the article.


Do people on this list think their licensing terms are acceptable?  Or can we 
tell?  Can the privacy persist?  Are the replacements they want to use mature 
enough to be useful?  Is FSF working with them?
