There is this image that I built as a one-off:
https://maedevu.maemo.org/images/droid4/20221214-chimaera/

You ought to be able to dd it, then connect to wifi, apt update && apt
dist-upgrade (just to pull in updates), and then reboot.

Then phone calls will work out of the box, and mobile data should too.

There are still some things to solve, in particular, we need to support
(and not conflict with) elogind, otherwise a lot of software is not
installable. As far as I know this is the last thing to solve before we
have Chimaera ready.

Technically we could release our Chimaera image without support for
elogind sessions, but it might make the migration painful later on, so
we'd rather do it now so that users don't have to go through it.

I'm hoping to be there and happy to meet. I might bring some stickers. :)
