I'm afraid I don't understand all that much about the process involved, but is it likely there'll be well-working ports of Sailfish for various devices originally running Android at some point? Are there any un-overcomeable obstacles to achieving this, or is it more a matter of someone just doing it?
Just flashed my old N9 with Sailfish, really liking it thus far, and wondering if it'll ever be possible to have it on my HTC One S as well.

About Dalvik porting, surfing on Internet, I got on this:
http://www.slideshare.net/pipatmet/p...ik-with-glib-c
https://plus.google.com/+KrzysztofKl...ts/2q2piwESEJ2
This guy seems to manage to porting Dalvik VM to Linux. If he managed to do this, It not should be too difficul porting it to Sailfish and also to Harmattan.
I think it deserves to be kept an eye on.

I've just installed the vgrade r3 version, and I have 2 questions/remarks:
- the method from the tutorial to gain root access (by editing the shadow file), doesn't work. I've tried to open a terminal, type "passwd root" and I get the message "only root can do this". And I type "su", I'm asked for a password, and, of course, blank doesn't work. Any idea?
EDIT: Booting from Harmattan and editing this shadow file shows 2 weird lines:
dbus:!!:16051::::::
sshd:!!:16051::::::
normal?
- is there any issue tracking somewhere where we can list what works and what not?

porting the dalvik vm is easy. porting the required java frameworks is though, did he do that too?
