Yesterday, the UBports core developer team released Ubuntu Touch Focal OTA-1
(In fact, Raoul, Marius and I were in a conference call when Marius froze and said: the PR team already posted the release blog post; the post is out, but we haven't released yet... ahhhh... panic... Shall I?, Marius said, and we said: GO!!! This is why the release occurred in public five hours ahead of schedule. OMG.)
For all the details, please study:

I have been involved in the development and release process over the past four years and I feel honoured to work with so many fine and genuine people on such a unique project.
It is a pleasure to work with you guys!!!
Also a big thanks to the UBports Foundation and its BoD for being the umbrella organisation of all Ubuntu Touch related initiatives.
Consumer-Ready
Ubuntu Touch is one of the very few Open Source projects that brings fourth a 100% FLOSS phone operating system.
After using Ubuntu Touch myself for several months now, I can confirm that it is a consumer grade OS that can be used by non-tech people as a daily driver for mobile communications and connectivity.
Go for it and try it out.
