Apologies, I need to stop thinking that if the LCNC project ships *some*
kernels, it must ship *all* kernels for every thread system, including
xenomai-kernel. The kernel versioning question needs no more attention.
For the two new userland thread systems, the point about avoiding
becoming a kernel package provider still stands. If this project
releases two new thread systems and creates expectations that they're
usable outside the controlled environment of a Live CD, I expect support
requirements to be staggering. Where possible major pieces like the
kernel should be offloaded to kernel package vendors who already have
the resources and infrastructure to support them.
There are PREEMPT_RT package vendors for Fedora/EL6, but,
disappointingly, none for Xenomai. For Debian/Ubuntu, others would know
better.
