But probably they won't drop the apk format, since so many apps in China are not delivered by Google Play
iiuc you upload the AAB to google play, which then delivers APKs customised for the user's device. so I don't think APKs are going anywhere. though you won't be able to upload new apps to google play w/o google having access to the signing key.

yeah Google's signing key is the core of this change

幸猫: yes! there are many things we could use help running, including verification.f-droid.org, gitlab runners, the forum, contributor buildserver instances, etc. what are you most interested in? they're all Debian.
w/o further details on the setup and what needs doing I'd say verification, buildservers, maybe runners.

@eighthave:matrix.org_hcfor all of them, first there just needs to be updates and make sure they stay up and running.16:53:41
@eighthave:matrix.org_hc If you're looking for more, there is creating an ansible setup to make an "auto-scaling" gitlab runner and have ansible manage the gitlab runner tokens. 16:53:45
@eighthave:matrix.org_hcverification is currently hacked together. Ideally it would fully recreatable with an ansible setup that would be based on the builserver ansible setup16:54:04
@freenode_djBRDF:matrix.org@freenode_djBRDF:matrix.org joined the room.16:54:27
@eighthave:matrix.org_hcverification could also be developed further, like making run the builds in Docker rather than a VM, since that would be faster, and security isn't so importnat for verification16:54:44
@eighthave:matrix.org_hc 幸猫: I think the main thing is for someone to take ownership of some of those boxes 16:55:06

@proletarius101:matrix.orgproletarius101 Since I'm working on the migration of fdroidserver to Debian/buster, given that there are only java 11 sdks, would taht be a problem? I'm still able to install java 8 sdks from the old stable source though. 17:14:51

@proletarius101:matrix.orgproletarius101plus, does it make any sense to prefer backports packages than the main ones17:17:37
