From the article:
>Sailfish’s local certification in Russia also follows an announcement earlier this year that a new Russian company, Open Mobile Platform (OMP), had licensed the OS with the intention of developing a custom version of the platform for use in the domestic market. So, in other words, a Russian, strategic ‘Android alternative’ is currently being built on Sailfish.
Am I misunderstanding the scope of this 'custom version'? Is the version of Android running on BLU devices not also a custom version developed by a local company?
