Mitch, and it is being used to prototype Maemo 5 - which has lots of fun stuff..

Matthew,

I would be very interested in hearing about which IDE you choose to do
your development (Spring B) and how you set up your distribution
(Winter B)  ..  ;)
actually, would you find a discussion on patching, a bit subversion
centric, but using the basix UNIX toolsets - maybe for the July
meeting?
