When is Crimson coming?

PureOS development is slowly ramping up again after Purism revamped its cashflow and inventory financing and is now better living within its means. Better cashflow and recently increased sales are dissolving much of the debt that had become a blocker for most ongoing development efforts. Despite it being paramount in a tech company, R&D is ultimately a cost center; weight had to temporarily shift toward profit centers - marketing, sales, etc - for long-term survivability. Finances are now looking more promising and we’ll proceed with an internal PureOS development crowdfunding campaign (timeline TBD but expecting within a month or two, pending planning+infrastructure+webdev efforts) then keep the momentum to increase hours of contractor staff toward full-time. I can provide more concrete answers once several unknowns are resolved.
