I\'ve been using 3.3.6pre1 but doesn\'t that break all application because of the version of gcc?
Break is a relative term. GCC3.x uses a different naming scheme (name mangling it\'s called) for C++ (but not for C), this means you need to use the compat-libs for Qtopia apps (which share C++ libs). I\'ve had no real troubles getting things to run using these libs (the hancom apps, opera, etc. are all fine)
are they easily compiled with the toolchain?
Basically yes, but of couse it depends what you want to compile.
Is it even still in development since openembedded?
OE is only a set of scripts, etc., which are used to build a system (OZ for example), OE is the progression of the old buildroot which was used to build OZ apps, kernels and zImages and as such can do the same (though it\'s currently at the end of a moving-over stage, so there may still be some limitations). In any case I\'ve been able to build a kernel and a couple of apps using OE so yes it\'s certainly still in development, just lacking (as ever) in people to do the developing.
