I want to say a big "THANK YOU" to the patch and patch system devs. More so as today I got my Forma and the next thing I did after checking the Forma's display was to update and then patch out the "slice to unlock". Someone at Kobo central must be an UX Grinch...
Moving the patch system to YAML and adding the overrides is a great step forward. Now, if we could get a web UI and a cloud service to download custom patched Kobo firmware as a service ... what a dream!
