That it takes "less time" is only sometimes true. > Just trying to give a different opinion from Richard. I actually agree with you, Gilles. If you are developing a consumer device - with a three year product lifetime - that will never receive a firmware upgrade - where time to market is most important then the TI kernel is the best choice. But if you want to build, let's say, a platform for a family of products with a five to ten year scope, then maybe using TI's heavily modified v3.2 kernel is not best way. In any case, what is clearly best for the community is having mainline support. I myself am interested in and am willing to help out with xenomai on the beaglebone, but I will not waste my time with the TI kernel. It is just too far away for me.
