linux-cl.bkbits.net is my trees. You can see it keeps large chunks of changes independent to make managing them easier. You're looking for collie-2.4. > It seems a bit odd to me that there's a kernel tree separate from the > CVS at handhelds.org.

Which tree is more likely to > make it into the mainstream kernel? The handhelds.org folks have historically done a really bad job of managing their trees with regard to upstream submission. Upstream is rmk's tree, not theirs, and they never cooperated with him well. Thats changing now with the work they're doing for 2.6, and we'll be working with them on the Zaurus support there. > > The plan is to merge in the necessary bits from the > > poodle/corgi/husky/shepherd trees (c7x0 and 5600) into our clean 2.4.21 > > tree, and then move on to pushing forward Zaurus support into 2.6. > > I'm willing to help, but it'll have to be next year because I've got a > PhD to finish first.

We'll move to 2.4.21 first simply because its mostly complete as is, any driver rewrites can be easily pushed forward to 2.6, and we'll have something solid to hand the users. > What's the status of your SD/MMC driver, BTW? Hasn't been touched in a few months, not much to it really. Its just a matter of implementing the slot driver using the SPI interface on Sharp's locomo chip.
