(install instructions and script updated on 2090601: see below)

It's been a while, but we haven't been sleeping :-)

New website:
============
We have a new website now, thanks to Fale: http://www.qtmoko.org
There you can find all the latest changes, report bugs, etc ...

IRC channel:
============
For those wanting to talk: on irc.freenode.net, channel #qtopia is open
for business.

Things solved/added/changed:
============================
See http://www.qtmoko.org/wiki/Change_log
See http://github.com/liedekef/qtmoko/commits/master for the changelog
in detail

Problems found (more like small nuisances now):
===============================================
See http://www.qtmoko.org
- if you set the time back to something in the past, the clock service
  crashes and you need to restart qtextended if you want to use the
  clock again
- bluetooth is not working totally ok, only after initial boot it
  works, not after suspend/resume. Seems to be kernel/bluez3 version
  combo issue ... After suspend/resume bluetooth seems to work, but
  receiving files for sure doesn't.
- if you try to delete the "Wireless Lan", the system crashes ... cool
  huh, a crashed phone? So for now: don't do it :-)
- slow building up of the Contacts, because of all the sql queries for
  a*, b*, c*, ...

Install instructions:
=====================
download the script
http://www.e-dynamics.be/openmoko/qtmoko_install.sh , read the
comments at the top and then execute the script on your openmoko (after
having flashed the device and made sure internet works).
The script has 2 options: "install" or "update". An update will just
download the tgz file and replace your current qtmoko with it.

For those who just want to replace their existing qtmoko manually,
here's the link: http://www.e-dynamics.be/openmoko/qte_20090601.tgz .

Enjoy!

Franky
