The future of mobile computing.

[Omar Radwan]

Since 1989 till about 2005, desktops where the main computing platforms, and from then till about 2010, laptops where the main computing platforms. The GNU project and other free software projects have been able to maintain a fully free operating system on both devices. But the problem now it that phones and tablets are taking up massive market share from both laptops and desktops. And as of right now, there is no way to run a fully free operating system on those devices. And that's bad. I was wondering if there is any plan within the GNU project to start making GNU phone and tablet compatible. Like all the stuff under the hood can be used, the problem is writing free firmware drivers to be able to use the device. Another problem is UI, which doesn't seem like that much of an issue. But is there anything currently in the works
