I do not agree with a stay in the past situation. I have proposed these refresh to help kirkwood plugs become useable. This is a platform that was looking promising and had also been not so user frendly in the beginning. The features like the sheevaplug MMC/SD driver was a pain. UBOOT have greatly gain in a peace of software more robust that in was few years ago. For Kirkwood Sheevaplugs we have also a device, SD cards, which was simply unuseable. So I decided to get this driver upstream. So what now ? USB layer get fixed. IDE layer get fixed. UBIFS is a new standard. EXT4 support helpfull. DEVICETREE is needed for linux kernel support. What I proposed is to get a refresh for : - - The NAND partitions (with a possible study to be friendly with most distributions around) - - To discuss about the better BOOTSTRAP method (I may used a script, propose defaults ENV. We may need to boot from IDE, USB, NAND, NET, ...) It's an open discussion to get a friendly users, understand with the lesser patch in each distribution, with the most possibility afford. I do not think that, all around customisation is the solution.
