So new that the paint is still wet, here is the first candidate release
of the upcoming 2.1 series. The major changes since v2.0.x are as follows:
* New build system which allows to compile Xenomai statically into the
kernel image, and ensures proper decoupling between kernel and
user-space supports.
* SMP support for ppc64 and tree refactoring toward 2.6.15/powerpc.
* Backport to Linux 2.4 for x86 and ppc32.
* Port to the Blackfin architecture (http://blackfin.uclinux.org/).
and a number of updates to the nucleus, rtdm, the native and POSIX APIs.
As usual, see the ChangeLog for details.
Since we have a few major updates still cooking outside of the main tree
which are planned for inclusion in 2.1 final, this is not a feature
freeze, yet.
Also note that starting with the v2.1 series, the simulator is available
as a separate tarball.
