Good point.
Although I have been using Linux for many years, I haven't followed the
kernel development very closely because I haven't needed to do anything
to the kernel itself. RT-Linux changes that.
Question:
Is there a site where I can get the history of development (features) of
the kernel? I went to linux.org but their site is so slow I gave up in
fustration. I am actively considering RT-Linux for a significant control
project and need to pick a kernel. My concerns are, stability, un-needed
features which may impact my RT modifications, maintenance and obsolence.
By obsolence, I mean that I don't want to pick a kernel that is unlikely
to run on mother-boards which will be available in 5 years.
