seconded - Debian should be the prime target. Best infectiousness and less danger of veering into bloat/feature creep space. for instance, we'll likely get it out of the Mint package stream for free eventually, which would be a big plus; you never know, maybe even an arm build there's another reason: I never understood what the value of 'Ubuntu packaged kernels' actually is, and that is a major work item, very distro-specific and of unclear upside; in the case of the xenomai 3.5.7 kernel John eventually dropped the Ubuntu specific patches and we still have to see an issue -m ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
