** Changed in: ofono (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => In Progress

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: ofono
+ [Availability]
+ * Available in universe
  
- I have reviewed the package and it meets the requirements for main
- inclusion.  It is a build dependency for geoclue, which is needed for
- indicator-datetime.
+ [Rationale]
+ * This package is used on production device running Ubuntu Touch.  Although 
it's no longer a hard dependency for Unity8, it's desirable to move it into 
main.
+ 
+ [Security]
+ * A security review was performed prior to the Unity8 dendency fix.  No know 
security issues at this time.
+ 
+ [Quality Assurance]
+ * This package has unit tests, and new unit tests were added primarily to 
test the rilmodem driver, as part of Ubuntu Touch development.  This package 
currently lacks autopkgtests.  It does however include a binary ofono-scripts 
package with ~100 Python based test tools which are used for manual testing and 
debugging of Touch devices.  Automated testing is possible via the 
ofono-phonesim package, but was not a priority due to a focus on the rilmodem 
driver testing on real hardware.  This code has been heavily tested by 
Engineering and QA during the lifetime of Ubuntu Touch.
+ 
+ [Dependencies]
+ All dependencies are already in main ( I'd like independent verification of 
this by a core-dev ).
+ 
+ [Standards Compliance]
+ ( <Need someone to help check compliance> )
+ 
+ [Maintenance]
+ This package is maintained by Canonical and actively in use on the phone 
images.
+ 
+ [Background]
+ This package is used to control one or more modems for data, sms, and/or 
voice.  On Ubuntu Touch it is configured to use a builtin ofono modem driver 
called rilmodem, with which it controls a native or containerized rild daemon 
from an AOSP BSP. oFono may also be used with one of a variety of builtin 
plugins which talk directly to a modem thru a serial port or other device, 
using a native protocol such as the Hayes command set ( eg. AT Commands ).  It 
was originally a joint project between Intel and Nokia and was used as part of 
MeeGo.  It still is under active development by Intel, and thus is well 
supported upstream.
