Hi,
Wouldn't integrating both projects make sense ?
It seems both share a significant amount of work and similar lack of
resources.
Best Regards,
Cordialement,

So, let's talk about the elephant in the room: the current situation of
the Xenomai project is not viable in the long run. I can only encourage
people who feel concerned about it to discuss openly the practical steps
to best address this challenge.
Thanks for bringing this frankly on the table! For those who follow the
project, it's likely no news. So we were working on this issue also
internally, with users of Xenomai inside Siemens. And we have the
backing to enhance our involvement in upstream work. Right now we are
working on making this concrete.
There are many areas where contributions can be beneficial for the
project and its community, and many do not require deepest understanding
of the core, like around CI, test automation, distro packaging,
documentation, or user support. But some essential elements in my eyes are
- building up a core team of kernel maintainers for Cobalt
- offloading work from the shoulders of our extremely valuable
maintainer
The second part will be achieved to a certain degree by the first one as
Philippe can probably confirm.
Yes, extending "Cobalt" to the pipeline. A significant portion of the
overall maintenance involves the I-pipe. Hence the work on rethinking
how the interrupt pipeline is integrated into the Linux kernel, how we
can make the former a regular feature of the latter instead of an
add-on, with the goal of simplifying the maintenance, but also making
the whole thing way more natural, easier to grasp.
