Hard float is the plan. We intend to build every package that builds, so that would include KDE. I have no idea what will end up on the SD card, and what point we get a desktop running, the initial target is booting to a command line, like Ubuntu Server. My ideal result would be an SD card that

The reason for not switching to v7 in jaunty already was that it took more than one release to sort out all issues and build failures for a clean v7 build with all planned optimizations that were agreed with ARM to end up in ubuntu. The ubuntu arm port would have been v7 from day one if that

There are two separate issues to consider here: 1. User space packages: The discussion so far has centered around this one. Anyone can rebuild the Ubuntu packages and recreate an ARMv5/v6 based distro out of them. There appear to be a number of parties that are interested in this, mostly for v5,

I am going to VEHEMENTLY AND VIOLENTLY DISAGREE with this position. There was a CONSCIOUS DECSION to BREAK good ARM (v6) support in favor of the Beagleboards etc.. Bad decision, period. This should be about getting the ARM version on the MOST devices out there, and that means V6 support. It
