Philippe,

Can I ask a few clarifications about the release?

I noticed that there is an arm64 directory in the cobalt/arch directory of 
the tarball but it is empty. I assume this is a mistake and arm64 is not 
supported in 3.0.5. I see cobalt/arch/arm64 in the next branch.

You also mentioned that the release supports up to kernel series 4.9.x. 
There aren't any ipipe patches beyond 4.4.x in 
xenomai.org/downloads/ipipe. Is the ipipe-4.9.y branch generally stable 
for use with this release? Or was your statement meant to convey that 
3.0.5 will be compatible with an ipipe-4.9 patch when it is released?

Can you (or anyone else) provide a general update on arm64 status? I 
haven't seen anything for a few months. We're 
currently considering migrating from an arm, Xenomai 2.6.5 setup to an 
arm64, Xenomai 3 Cobalt configuration. We're happy to help with 
development to the extent we're able.

Thanks,
Jeff
