I wouldn't say I'm dying to present, but I have recently come back to doing embedded Linux development, and I have become pretty familiar with the Yocto Project, which aims to provide a general toolset for creation of project-specific Linux distributions while maintaining a high degree of reusability. It's based on OpenEmbedded, which had its genesis in the OpemZaurus project and later provided the foundation for the Angstrom embedded distribution. Yocto helped to make the core recipes of OpenEmbedded more general and flexible, and they also provide a simple distribution called Poky that can be used as-is, as a foundation to build on, or simply as an example of how to develop a new distro. I am not quite at expert level with it yet, but I have got familiar enough to use it effectively. If people are interested, I would be willing to share some of what I've learned. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
