Joel Sherrill commented on a discussion: https://gitlab.rtems.org/rtems/rtos/rtems/-/issues/5502#note_143583 I agree with @opticron that RTEMS is not general purpose. But "operating systems provider" might even be hard to nail down. For Windows, "operating systems provider" would be Microsoft. For Linux, who/what organisation would be the OS provider? Would it be Linus or the Linux Foundation, the OS distribution (RedHat, Canonical, etc.)? What about respins like Kubuntu? For Yocto, who becomes the provider? For Yocto, could most users side step general purpose? Similar for OpenWRT. Is it general purpose? This seems like another example of the unfortunate application of general computing requirements to anything with a processor. The people writing the laws likely do not know enough to even recognize a distinction. -- View it on GitLab: https://gitlab.rtems.org/rtems/rtos/rtems/-/issues/5502#note_143583 You're receiving this email because of your account on gitlab.rtems.org.
