That was was just proof-of-concept, must be continued, and apparently by people who have real need for such image. But before that would give any sustainable result, IMHO, OPIE upstream should define its role among embedded GUI environments. Without that, any work to fit something into yesterday's amount of space will be firefighting (like for example attempts to fit X environment into 16Mb - by now its clear that it's not possible to fit base and useful applications in such space, moreover size of base is unconstrained and will only grow with time). > Cheers, > Paul -- Best regards, Paul mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Angstrom-distro-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-users
