(apologies for the previous incomplete email)
I've used and followed Xenomai off and on since it forked from RTAI. I'm
building a new xenomai x86 system after a few years of doing other
things. I'm noticing that the adeos patches are few and relatively old
compared to the kernel for the x86 architecture. Kernel version 3.2 has
moved from .21 to .35 for instance. Meanwhile my (non-rt) systems all
use 3.4 or 3.6.
So my question is (with the deepest respect for the effort it must take)
why? Why do the adeos patches lag so much?
Also why were the linux-3.2.21 x86 patch typos which prevent compilation
not fixed? When such basic thing is not taken care of it makes me doubt
the integrity of the whole project.
In my community (robotics) xenomai is the go-to RT system for me and
most of my peers. However the xenomai roadmap and task-market are
bitrotted and there don't seem to be project status updates on the wiki
or mailing list which makes it hard to contribute or make plans.
I guess I just want to call attention to the fact that things are
looking a little rough at xenomai.org and ask whether passers by like
myself should try to help a little or move on?
kind regards,
hauptmech
