Hi WaLyong We can turn that argument around and say that an own project is actually worse, since we have to maintain it and we won't be getting updates and fixes from other people. I don't think the speed of development is an issue. If we have people to spare to develop tinybox in the first place, then those people can contribute to toybox and, if necessary, take maintainership and drive development to the speed we need. Changes that don't get integrated upstream can be kept as a patch for a short while in our tree too. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.tizen.org/listinfo/dev
