In-Reply-To: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org David/Alan, Andre Hedrick is now the CTO of TRG and Chief Scientist over Linux Development. After talking to him, we are going to do our own ring 0 2.4 and 2.2.x code bases for the MANOS merge. the uClinux is interesting, but I agree is limited. MANOS schedules should be unaffected. The current DLL prototype of Linux 2.2 is ring 0, but I shudder at trying to merge all the changes I've done to it into core 2.2.X as a .config option. There's also the gravity well forces of different views to this effort. With Andre on the job, I am more confident in co-opting the Linux drivers and just biting the bullet on the support issues, and doing a full fork of Linux.
