Ok, to ease pushing things into folders, I would suggest creating this
structure in the root dir of trunk:

examples/native/...
examples/native/kernel/...
examples/posix/...
examples/...
examples/drivers/can/...
examples/drivers/serial/...

All stuff self-contained, i.e. one should simply cd to the folder type
make, maybe additionally providing some information on the xenomai
installation dir / kernel source path, and some binary pops up, ready to
run or insmod.

I would furthermore suggest to have some kind of hello-xenomai.c in
every skin example folder that is intended as the beginners tutorial,
providing an elementary framework to start hacking.


Reorganising the testsuites is another topic. I currently have no idea
how to sort things. We have some stuff under sim/skins/*/testsuite that
only builds for the simulator, there is src/testsuite, intended to be
distributed and installed on the target, and we may want to have a
larger testsuite that can be downloaded separately (my concern is also
about driver tests here). Anyone any ideas/comments on this?
