Is the code that runs the garage and autobuilder code available and is it FOSS?
I was thinking if Pine64 hosted a clone of these tools alongside their forums(visit here https://forum.pine64.org ) it would be a way to encourage and streamline more dev work at Pinephone and obviously that benefits us here too, even N900 users running PostmarketOS get a win from easier dev work for the OSs supported by Nokia Linux devices.
Let us not forget that I want my dark and simple Maemo interface back which I hope happens from a merge with latest Mobian and Maemo-Leste and the arrival of the pinephone keyboard.

Answered my own question, Garage is based on http://midgard-project.org/

I can almost bet none of these projects will want to work with anything like midgard. They use Gitlab CI, etc., and Maemo Leste uses Jenkins.

Will not happen, I think. If you want Hildon, then support (and contribute to) Maemo Leste.

I have responsibilities with some Pine hardware development so I pretty much have to use one of the more developed OSs for that(currently Mobian but postmarket/alpine before that), I would love to be able to SD boot into Leste though.
I am actually still using a N900 for daily needs.
Is there a bootable image available or do we still need to install u-boot?
I check the Leste every few months.

Yeah, Mobian is a really nice project. In some ways (some won't agree with me) ... I feel it's a spiritual successor to Maemo Fremantle (debian base, gtk)

You did not specify which particular Pine hardware ... if you mean Pinephone, yes Leste supports it,
https://maedevu.maemo.org/images/pinephone/

If it's some other Pine thing (I am not too familiar with them), I'm sure the team will be happy to support it as far as possible.

I'd say - hop onto irc.libera.chat/#maemo-leste if you're able, or use the mailing list, https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/list/maemo-leste.en.html

Yes, you will still need u-boot (that is the bootloader, to enable you to boot Leste or any other OS)
