Clone and own remainder in rtems.git to legacy and libbsd. We can then lean to freezing, patching, or replacing as appropriate for each stack. Legacy leans to freeze but I can see some fixes applied to a copy in both. But say we port a new webserver to RTEMS. I'm guessing it would go with libbsd and we would ignore ir for legacy. We can revisit this with lwip. It may not be able to support some of these services anyway. If it can, we patch in two places. This stuff rarely changes. And as I say rarely changes, I expect a deluge of improved network services. LOL --joel > > Chris >
