They just announced it. Debian guys are trying to make something embedded
for long time (Embedian project) and nearly nothing yet. First let they
provide informations what they want to reach and how.

I am a bit tired of all those 'big distro starts project for embedded'
because many times it end in 'it is like normal device but has only 100MB
of storage'. And then they got hit by devices which lack keyboard or have
only touchscreen + keypad or no input at all.. or have 8MB flash and 32MB
RAM..


Perhaps this one will be more successful as the Gnome project, too, had
announced some efforts on the mobile and embedded area.
