PTXdist is under consideration for quite some time, but resources were
simply too limited to "play" with it.

We first need to find a clean model how to integrate the Xenomai build
process so that we can build from a single Xenomai source tree (to allow
development on that Xenomai tree), but do not turn PTXdist upside down.
Should be feasible. Once this is done, all other packets that are
missing will be easy to port.

The roadmap then looks like using PTXdist to build binary packets (like
we now do on our own) AND a toolchain (we simply use SuSE so far), but
first keep our installation process. Enhancing PTXdist with generic
"installation skins" may be a future step, also depending on the further
development of that project.
