I'll be glad to. :-)

BTW - I still have some unspent money from CELF budgeted for OE
improvements (not a lot, but some).  Also, I have a machine dedicated
in the CELF test lab for OE work.  Last year, Marcin did some contract
work for us.  I don't think we're leveraging what he did very well.
In terms of what CELF is interested in going forward: we would very
much like to see well-maintained minimal distribution that works
on several architectures.  I can use some of the above
resources for this work.

I don't want to discuss numbers on an open list, but details
are available upon request.

Can you please factor this into the OEDEM discussions?

I won't be at OEDEM, but I'll be at ELCE in Austria, November 2-3.
(see http://www.celinux.org/elc_europe07/elc_europe_index.html)
Matt Locke will be giving a talk on Open Embedded there.  I'm not
sure where the main OE developers are located in Europe, but if
it's convenient, it would be nice to meet there and discuss what
CELF can do to help out.
