[uml-devel] Status

Folks,

Except for target kernel patches, it doesn't look like the download area has been updated in quite some time and the User Mode Linux Community link is broken. What's the status? Is UML so stable that the only work left is to keep up with new kernels for the virtual machine?

Thanks
Dave Braun

UML development is as strong as ever, it's just that since 2.6.9 all 2.6 UML
development has been going into the mainline (kernel.org). The 2.4 guest patches will
continue to be released on the uml website.

You should check out Blaisorblade's -bb guest patch for 2.6.  It contains all the new
patches that are being fed into mainline:

Our only problem is that nobody is working currently on the web-pages.

I'll put a link shortly to http://uml.harlowhill.com/ - Wikies auto-solve the 
problem, it's just not officially endorsed (i.e. linked) from the main UML 
page, so nobody goes there (btw, everybody out there uses a Wiki now to 
manage docs - UML is an exception in having only an "unofficial" wiki).

But today I troubleshooted a problem, asked to put my solution on it, and the 
person I helped did it immediately. People are nice... we just need to 
advertise that site.
