Re: [Linwizard-users] Motivation - fresh wind

J=C3=B6rn,

	Yea, everyone has been short on time, and projects like this are usually t=
he=20
first to be pushed aside.
	Currently the git kernel repository is up. Available at=20
git://walrus.centrixpr.com/linwizard/linux-omap-2.6.git or=20
http://walrus.centrixpr.com/linwizard/linux-omap-2.6.git. I was in the=20
process of merging the changes from the patches on the sourceforge site int=
o=20
the current tree, but as I was doing that I noticed that most things are=20
already in, and the way it's currently done in the kernel is more elegant=20
than what was happening in the linwizard patch series.
	As a result there is no defconfig for the wizard.  From a technical=20
standpoint the kernel should run on the wizard but I haven't picked through=
=20
and made a .config file by hand and tested it.
	If anyone has the time / is willing to do that work it would be a big help=
=2E =20
Also if there are things that were working before that arn't working now (n=
ot=20
configuration issues) they need to be tracked down.  Sourceforge has a=20
bugtracker that we can use.
	I try to be on irc (irc.freenode.net #linwizard) as much as possible, and =
I'm=20
going to try to keep conversation flowing here on the lists.  If you are=20
maintinaing the wiki, maybe you would be willing to keep the rest up to dat=
e? =20
If you are let me know, so the news/updates can trickle down to the outside=
=20
world.
	Anyways, the project isn't dead yet, and I am keeping the repo up to date=
=20
with upstream and there is progress. Slow progress, but progress.

Best regards to all.
