open zaurus \'roadmap\' ??
« on: January 10, 2004, 12:19:12 am »
I am running 3.3.6 pre1 and am very impressed. It is stable.

What is the high level roadmap for Open Zaurus?

What will the next OS release level be after 2.4.18?

Is there any plan to move to 2.6? What is the timeline?

Is there any plan to merge operating environments with other releases?

Will \'other\' zaurus releases migrate to gcc 3.3 as well??

What I\'d like to know is if future releases will include the compat libs IN the rom without installing seperately.

I doubt it as they are rather large and there\'s not enough space, and I\'m also not sure what percentage of users will continue using the older Sharp apps.

Mickey:

I found an empty \"template\" at http://openzaurus.org/newsletters/2004.01. Are you close to filling in the blanks? Some people here are quite eager for news :wink:
