Yes, that is correct. I do just add that the reason that it still works is the 
good GPS module we did choose.

This mixes reason and consequences. I release new kernels for other reasons. 
But it benefits QtMoko as well.

+ more I known, who are not active on this list because they do not want to 
make public they still use their GTA04.

besides Librem 5 there is nothing new.
