Hello zhangwenjie (or whatever your name is). I have two formal remarks on a comments like this : 1) Please do not top-post (http://www.catb.org/~esr/jargon/html/T/top-post.html) 2) Please sign your self, so that we can address you properly
Anyway, what Bahadir was saying is that it is not enough that you are interested (as a user). You should contribute to the development, in this case very complex and technically challenging. The source code is released, it gives you a significant base to start with. If you are interested, start developing on this base, I do not see any point waining for release 0.4, or whatever. If you are really interested, I have a work for you : http://opencores.org/project,c0or1k. Jump in and start porting the code. > In term of the > technology > of L4 it will be popular on the embedded system, especially in > mobile telephone with the popularity of Android. > Bandbase need RTOS and application need > Linux, > and how to merge these two systems need virtualize technology, this is what > Codezero realized. No, no, no. Application CPU does not need Linux at all. As a matter of fact, it can run the same RTOS (or any Posix compliant OS, or even Windows, if you like it. Not everyone needs Android), as often BaseBand and App CPUs are the same. What ? Did I mention 2 CPUs ? YES ! And not only two, there can be many more, as trends in the industry is to replace proprietary DSPs with a bunch of cheap (and often open-sorce) cores (like Lattices Mico32 for example) and run your L1 software on them. And there is your problem - convince the industry players that merging everything to one core will not come with performance impact. I do not expect that we'll be seeing this in near future... but that's just mine $0,05. > So if Codezero is open to every fans of it, it will be > going more > strong. It will be more strong only if there are enough technically skilled people in the community to build good product, debug it, test it and port it to a bunch of different architectures. Which currently is not the case. So, I see no problem with Codezero to stay closed for the moment until it finds good funding plans and get it's place in the industry. In the meanwhile, it gives you more then enough starting points to develop further, either on your own (by creating a derivative side project) or by joining some of existing efforts.
