Bacon goes Focal
After some really tough challenges with recovery, fake cache and a lot of confusion, the Oneplus One finally reaches a testable state in Focal's devel channel. Now we need you!
A lot of features in this list: https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/bacon/release/focal/ still show a question mark and need to be tested.
Note that this is not a daily driver yet, so do not test it on your main device.
Also very important is to only use installer version 0.10.0 with the "Bootstrap" option! do not simply change channels from inside UT.

OpenStore planned maintenance

Hello all! I just wanted to inform everyone that I am going to take down the OpenStore for maintenance on Sunday, May 28th around 23:30 UTC. I'll be upgrading the OS and using a new Ansible playbook for setup. It'll be switching to a new server, so if things go horribly wrong I can just switch dns back to the old server. I don't expect it to take very long, but Murphy's law could apply here.
