Seconded. Since this port will work on all ARM SoCs that meet the minimal hardware requirements, it should not be named around a specific vendor. Something vendor neutral like "armfp", "armel_hardfloat", etc. is much more appropriate (although we should probably try to make it clear in the vendor name that you need specific CPU features to fully support it). > Paul > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
