I agree with this assessment. The typical requirements (like product life time, perfective maintenance etc.) for consumer electronics products is very much different from the requirements from embedded systems for example in the automation industry, where product lifetimes are often more than an order higher than for typical consumer electronics" devices. This obviously results in differing priorities. It's perfectly reasonable (but still a pity) that the members of the Consumer Electronics Linux Forum support their own needs first.
