  Hi,
  
  We are switching to a new build config.
  Till today, builds were made on a computer at home then uploaded to ffos.vosky.fr.
  Home computer have good hardware but slow connexion and ffos.vosky have Gameboy harware with 1 Gb/s connexion.
  Upload from home to ffos take about 6 hours.
  That is why we never upload more than 2 builds per day.
  
  In the new config, builds will be make ON ffos.vosky, a REAL server with great hardware and 100 Mb/s connexion.
  We are still working on it, we have some issues during compilations.
  
  So, what already changed ?
  My home server upload files on the new server.
  Bandwidth is slower, but only those of you who have connexion with more than 100 Mb/s will see a small difference.
  All the website is in HTTPS, even next FOTAs releases.
  
  What will change ?
  Builds will be made ON ffos.vosky.fr.
  So we will be able to releases more builds per day and it will relieve my home Internet.
  Eyome suggest to release test builds everyday with nightlies.
  
  We alsoMAY upload builds for another device.
  But we are not sure because it would double our work and we are lazy and we do not have another device so we would upload without any test...
  If you want that we add ONE other device, we need 3 things :
  - The device is not made by another Mozilla contributor, so it is not on this website :https://firefoxos.mozilla.community/devices/
  - The device have a Mozilla manifest, on this website :https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/b2g-manifest
  - You have this device and you are motivated to help us (may need to erase all phone datas during tests).
  Big bonus point : You speak french.
  
  If you want to suggest new device that respects theses conditions, please send me a PM, so we do not flood this topic.
  French messages will be read first.

  New daily builds since 2015-06-16 are in "HD" :
  - Boot animation have 1080p resolution (fullscreen for Nexus 5).
  - DPI (GAIA_DEV_PIXELS_PER_PX) is set to 3.375, the optimal value for Nexus 5.

  Hi Vosky,
  
  2.1s, "s" is forStingray.
  It's useless for a device like Nexus 5

  Hi,
  There are some news since I added 2.2 prerelease.
  
  As@eyoome said, 2.1"s" is for smartTV so it is useless for Nexus 5 : I removed it.
  
  There is no more "weird shortcuts" pointed by@cimbrum.
  
  With@eyoome we added FOTA updates !
  Your phone will download and flash new builds like CyanogenMod roms.
  But it work if Firefox OS is your only rom (no multirom support).
  We tested it with clockworkmod, it may fail with other recovery.
  Thank todattaz for hishow to andLixxys for his help on IRC.
  
  Now we work (@eyoome and me) on fixing camera issue. :fingers-crossed:

  Yep great news yeah!?!
  
  Seriously guys, push on "Thanks" button for Vosky, because he did a great job! See around, there are no FFOS rom more complete than this one for Nexus5, and I doubt there are a lot better on others phones (excepted for ZTE Open C, of course, it was our development model...).
  For the others rom makers who want to know how we proceed, please refer to the previous post by Vosky, and on his Home page, all is describe here. Feel free to ask too if you have any questions, I'll do my best to help you. We are working as close as possible to Mozilla community to provide the best rom we can, so enjoy!
  So yeah, now, you can choose, with this rom, the FFOS version you want.
  
  To reminder, here are their descriptions:
  -Nightly rom: atm 3.0 version. This version is build EVERY days. This is the branch dev version. Possibly hightly instable. Not really recommended to be daily used, but hey, it's not forbidden, above all if you want to report bugs.
  -Aurora rom: atm 2.2 version. This version is build every weeks. This version should be more stable than Nightly, and it includes progressively the news features coming from nightly version, but later...
  -Beta rom: atm 2.1 version. This version is build every weeks. This should be the more stable version, close to be commercialy released.
  
  And yes, as Vosky said, stay tuned guys, be sure camera will come soon, it's already fixed in upstream. It's a matter of time.
