F-Droid will soon have stricter requirements for apps showing up in the "Latest" tab in the F-Droid app:

https://news.f-droid.org/posts/2019-03-26-the-latest-tab-now-highlights-good-descriptions/

If you are an app developer consider adding good descriptions, screenshots and a "Whats's New" section for your app.

If you notice that your favourite app doesn't fulfill all these requirements consider notifying the app's developers or just help them with a merge request adding the missing info to the source repo.

For people wanting to help updating/unblocking/adding apps, have a look at our issue tracker: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata and request for packaging tracker: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/issues

You'll find docs here: https://f-droid.org/en/docs/ and drop by on #fdroid on freenode if you need help.

#cccamp19

There's a new schedule app update live now. It includes self-organized sessions now.
Pull down to refresh your repo.

#cccamp19

There's an alpha release of the #card10 companion app available here now: https://fdroid.gitlab.io/ccc/
#cccamp19

The WiFi app has a different signature from the last events as we had to create a new repo. You'll need to uninstall the old version.

(Next time we'll give it a different package id if the signing key changes.)

Another helpful tip, as there's no c3nav app this time:

You can add a home screen shortcut of https://map.events.ccc.de
In Firefox/Fennec this works via the "+ sign in a house" icon in the top right corner.
#cccamp19

We are currently launching our #cccamp19 #FDroid repo. You'll find the Fahrplan app and the NOC wifisetup app there.
The card10 companion app will follow.

Please share and have a nice camp!

PSA: there'll be an #FDroid repository for #cccamp19

We are still working on it and will keep you posted.
