Rusty,

I don't understand why will you only invest in MIC2.
As you said, MIC2 is easy to using. But MIC2 cannot create
the development environment for mobiln 1 or 2.

My suggestion is MIC1 should maintain in the future. MIC1 shouldn't be
legacy software.
MIC1 and MIC2 are written of python. so It's possible to merge to MIC1
from function of MIC2. But MIC1 have to implement flxible more.

I think their handling in the following.

+ MIC1 -------------------------------+
|  Development Environment Kit (DEK)  |
|  Development software and testing   |
|  Create moblin1 images              |
|                                     |
| + MIC2 -----------------------+     |
| |  Create only moblin2 images |     |
| |  the Subset of MIC1         |     |
| +-----------------------------+     |
+-------------------------------------+

But we are confusing that MIC1 and MIC2 are similar in name ;-)
