Great to hear that you got in contact with these communities! [...] > What do you think?

Given that the necessary work on the Pyra seems to be nearing completion (thanks to Michael's unrelenting tirelessness, patience, and focus on the details, alongside your own work in enabling the enterprise), it seems almost like a certainty and is therefore rather tempting. However, I have hopes that progress on Neo900 will resume fairly soon. Joerg was too modest to mention it in his recent messages, but it remains a significant initiative whose success seems to be continuously frustrated by unfortunate circumstances. And it has a lot in common with GTA04, of course. > Let me finish this mail with expressing the hope that we will > revitalize these mailing lists.

Indeed, it would be nice to see the different projects helping each other along. For instance, Neo900 could presumably benefit a lot from the Letux kernel work, and it could potentially inform GTA04 production if that is ever revisited. Just some greater awareness amongst the different groups of what else is out there would be nice, though. That is surely something these lists can help with. Paul P.S. Sorry to cross-post, but it wasn't clear if I should restrict the reply to the Tinkerphones list. _______________________________________________ Gta04-owner mailing list Gta04-owner@goldelico.com http://lists.goldelico.com/mailman/listinfo.cgi/gta04-owner
