-Dear Community,
-<br>
-<br>
-Today we're pleased to announce an <b>Alpha 2</b> release. We have worked very hard over the past few months to achieve our goals of having a usable device running Open webOS, but due to a variety of factors we aren't as far as we thought we could be. Nevertheless, we have now implemented some important features that warrant the <b>Alpha 2</b> release.
-<br>
-<br>
-These features include:
-* Video Acceleration for card web apps (not perfect yet)
-* Audio playback support (including HTML5 audio support)
-* Telephony support through the Android telephony stack (based on the great work of the Ubuntu Touch project. Thank you very much guys!)
-** Mostly not available through the UI, but if you put a SIM card with unlocked PIN into your device you will notice the telephony indicator.
-<br>
-Our porting efforts are currently based on top of the [https://github.com/libhybris/libhybris  libhybris project], which enables us to utilize Android hardware drivers to support most hardware dependent components such as accelerated graphics, telephony, sensors, and GPS.  [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybris_(software)  libhybris] is the same key component that powers Ubuntu Touch and provides it with the ability to be ported to Android-based devices.  Our developers are continuously contributing to the [https://github.com/libhybris/libhybris  libhybris project] so that we can share work developed as part our implementation of the [https://github.com/libhybris/libhybris  libhybris project], with the project's other users (eg. Mer, Salfish and Ubuntu Touch).
-<br>
-<br>
-Whilst we have already achieved a lot, we are still not quite at the point of having a usable day phone or tablet.  This is mainly due to the fact that we still have a lot work to do on the applications side to build out missing functionality. Work has already commenced to port Preware to Enyo 2, but there are still a lot of other areas in which we need help. We have created a list with things we need help with [http://www.webos-ports.org/wiki/Help_Wanted here].  If you're a webOS enthusiast or like our projects, please feel free to contribute.  You can find all ways to contact us [http://www.webos-ports.org/wiki/Communications  here]. We need all the help we can get to achieve our final goal of having a usable phone & tablet!
