The embedded systems in cars are varied and lacking in uniformity, and they're difficult to access and there's not a lot you'd normally want to customize. We see a little bit of "chipping" for eking out a few more horsepower from engines and that sort of thing...but how much do you really need to customize the software that turns on your turn signal indicator or times the fade-in fade-out of the dome light when you open the door? The GEVCU project holds great promise for DIY electric vehicle conversions, but I have a difficult time imagining a future in which you'd see it or something similar in a new car from a major manufacturer, which would be the Linux parallel you're calling for. Yes, of course: I'd absolutely love to live in such a future; I just don't at all expect to actually see it come to pass. b& -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
