This is great! I have been trying out xenomai with 2.6.14 on our MPC8xx hardware, and it looks impressive. Still wonder why xenomai hasn't gotten the publicity it deserves. Somehow I had overlooked the example RTDM CAN driver, though. I also see Robert Schwebel as a member of OSADL, so I am eagerly waiting for a news-update on that site also (www.osadl.org). This could indeed get very interesting, I can't wait to see how Roberts implementation looks like. Thanks to all for the discussion and work on this matter, -- David Jander Protonic Holland.
