At this point it doesn't seem likely. Of the rich feature set Keith produced, Kai Germaschewski has managed to replicate the most compelling features (though by no means all!) by incrementally tweaking the Rules.make-based system, so Linus doesn't seem to see the urgency of replacing the whole thing. > I hope kbuild-2.5 does have a future because so much hard work has > gone into it. It would be a shame to see all the effort wasted. Me too, but Linus has never made any secret of the fact that he doesn't really care much about effort wasted, so long as he gets a kernel he is happy with. Call it what you will, we all know that's how this game is played....
