Hi,

This is a message sent out once per week to call on our community to encourage
all Linux/ARM enthusiasts to try out the latest preview images of our Linaro
Evaluation Builds (LEBs) for Android Handset and Ubuntu Desktop/Netbook.

These images showcase the current state of development on our LEBs images on
their way to the next release: 11.06.

 * Android:
   
http://snapshots.linaro.org/offspring/11.05-daily/linaro-android/leb-panda/20110616/

 * Ubuntu:
   
http://snapshots.linaro.org/offspring/11.05-daily/linaro-ubuntu-desktop/20110616/0/images/tar/
   
http://snapshots.linaro.org/offspring/11.05-daily/linaro-hwpacks/panda-x11-base/20110616/0/images/hwpack/

On top of the official Linaro Evaluation Builds, the Platform Team hosts a set
of functional images and board support packages that are typically released by
Linaro engineers for developers that have different images requirements.

These images are not officially supported release artifacts and are provided on
a best-effort basis in the hope that they can be useful for the Linux/ARM
enthusiasts community. The download locations for these so called "Developers
and Community Builds" can be found below.

Developer Images based on Android with vanilla AOSP experience using
linux-linaro mainline kernel as well as linaro toolchain:

 * Android Mainline for BeagleBoardr-xM:
   
http://snapshots.linaro.org/offspring/11.05-daily/linaro-android/beaglexm/20110616/

 * Android Mainline for PandaBoard:
   
http://snapshots.linaro.org/offspring/11.05-daily/linaro-android/panda/20110616/

Developer Images based on Ubuntu:

 Note: Ubuntu images are distributed in two parts:
  1. a SoC independent userspace rootfs (the image)
  2. a Soc specific BSP (the hwpack)

 * Nano:
   
http://snapshots.linaro.org/offspring/11.05-daily/linaro-nano/20110616/0/images/tar/

 * ALIP:
   
http://snapshots.linaro.org/offspring/11.05-daily/linaro-alip/20110616/0/images/tar/

 * Developer:
   
http://snapshots.linaro.org/offspring/11.05-daily/linaro-developer/20110616/0/images/tar/

Not officially supported community board support packages are also provided for
either boards that don't meet our Linaro Evaluation Builds criterias. The idea
is that you can combine them freely (e.g. combine an imx51 hwpack with Nano or
Developer); though in practice UI images might not work. A list of all hardware
packs hosted by Linaro Platform can be found below:
