Hello all, I would like to propose a meeting this week. I think it could be fine this Wednesday (2011/07/20) at 19:00 GMT in #crux-arm.
I start the little list with points to discuss and talk about.
i'm really sorry but i'm not at home
1.- 2.7 release: I would like to finish this task, closing perl cross-compilation problem and releasing the new relase candidate for the 2.7 version. The test1 relase is working really well here, but there weren't any reports from other people.
you're doing an amazing job! I think to release this 2.7 as stable is a priority task.
2.- HardFP: This point is really important for me too. We need to make a plan to see how to act with this topic. It would be great to perform the needed server setup to give acrux permission to start working there, and let him put all his good job in the server, keeping all the work together in one site.
i guess i'll be unable to work on untill September, therefore i uploaded my system's image as it is. Altought a bit dirty it's a good starting point for you saving a lot of development time. And also it's a good chance to plan and experiment some common directive rules for CRUX on "alternative architectures" like a functional ports tree overlay. As you can see with my image does manage the arm overlay (in this case is a local ports tree) through ilenia like we use to do for cruxppc. I can understand that CRUX ARMHF is, imho, a kinda of break point for your development plan.
3.- Open for suggestions (may be the installer sepen?)
Feel free to comment this topics and make changes in proposed date if it's needed.
an installer could be nice but, imho, it's a task really usefull only for the next gen arm based devices that are also real personal computers and not only handheld devices.
Waiting your comments, suggestions or opinions.
Best regards, Victor.
