Thanks Joel. I'll keep RTEMS in mind. I've also passed along word about RTEMS to some faculty I know who do real time things and have some interest in open source.

I know you all have worked very hard to get this. I also wanted to pop up and say I was still lurking. If there is ever any way for the RTEMS Project to help you all, let me know. Being an embedded real-time OS, we aren't appropriate for direct use in introduction to FLOSS classes except as an example project. For example, RTEMS is on the Curiosity rover. Custom devices and experimental science is certainly a place FLOSS provides benefits for humanity. RTEMS is always in need of help in marketing, graphics, and other things that nerdy computer guys are bad at. Personally I would also like to work with someone teaching requirements analysis or testing to provide a real world project where these are important. Or simply finding a way to incorporate real-time OS material into OS curricula. Again congratulations and don't forget that odd FLOSS projects exist and care about your mission. --joel sherrill RTEMS _______________________________________________ tos mailing list [email protected] http://lists.teachingopensource.org/mailman/listinfo/tos _______________________________________________ tos mailing list [email protected] http://lists.teachingopensource.org/mailman/listinfo/tos
