While everyone plays around in Android world,

I thought: why not go outside it and build something not so ordinary?

I've already tagged most capable developers to this project, so if you're willing to help. let me know.

Some of these unusual OSes might never work, but we could try, at least.

No announcements, no release dates. Just for playing around. For now. :)

Okay.

First off, Firefox OS is coming in the game.
I've already gathered neccessary sources, so next step is to make appropriate device tree.
Since Firefox OS uses Android kernel, it wouldn't be much of a problem, I think.
The whole major work will begin upcoming weekend. Stay tuned. :)

Sailfish OS will be on hold. It requires Cyanogenmod 10.1 as a bare minimum. Stock ROM won't cut it.
Okay... Firefox OS... Bad news... We need completely stock AOSP ROM in order for Firefox OS to work.
I started compiling and porting it and now everything's on hold. We have to hope that Cristi succeeds with his work eventually.
All of these OSes are similar to Android (uses same kernel, uses same drivers, work literally the same) but with current Jelly Bean, I can't do pretty much anything.
I will port those OSes. You can trust me, but without time, I'm powerless. :)

Ubuntu touch?

So Ubuntu should be easy too, as it is similliar to CM when it comes to building and porting from what i heard. I am completely noob to porting mobile OSes, but i will be trying to port it, maybe i will make something useful (I know I sound too optimistic)

Sorry for bad english
