> So, anybody want to be captain? I want to see Pico work! Well personally I'd nominate Jeffery if he's willing. Omanchu Oomgali (sp?) is also a favorite candidate of mine; I incited him to do some work on PicoBSD some time back and he made very good progress. (I'm booked until the end of next month but am willing to pitch in for coding duty if some direction has jelled by that time). However I don't think that freebsd-small can really survive without deeper consideration by the mainline developers. This is a serious point and one that has given PicoBSD quite a few fits and starts during its existence. Your suggestions about regular builds are also very insightful. IMHO, if PicoBSD is to remain in the tree it should be built regularly along with the snapshots and/or releases within the standard release engineering processes. There simply isn't any "bite" when things are committed that break PicoBSD in various ways, userland and kernel. I think we'll see jet-powered flying chihuahuas before that happens though :-) Cheers, Jerry Hicks jhix@mindspring.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-small" in the body of the message
