Might be better to nominate one board, create a userland tarball = for that board as well as an image for 10.0-RELEASE and see if we can = get crochet building images from that userland tarball before 10.1-R. We = should at least create an artifact now, even if its usefulness is in the = future... So a limited release for 10, if it isn't too late, for arm = would be great. Warner=
