Hi Eddie, Darren,
It's nice to see you're on board! Exciting times for truly open phone platforms.

For the moment we are still shaping up the product, it will be very
interesting to have your feedback about it and see where we could
collaborate further.
We'll be glad to have more platforms to test and more people to work together.

Aleix
