An excuse could be I'm trying to understand what BUILDROOT project is all about. Is it similar to other open source projects or somewhat different ? Are BUILDROOT maintainers interested in adding new architectures to the project ? On March 3d, I tried to start submitting Xtensa BUILDROOT : http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2009-March/026260.html follow-ups : http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2009-March/026263.html http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2009-March/026289.html Tensilica is eager to become a part of BUILDROOT. We made a commitment to support Xtensa BUILDROOT and try to do our best to improve generic BUILDROOT. Does BUILDROOT project has a concept of architecture maintainers ? I mean developers with write-access, who can check in architecture-specific updates without approval and commit generic updates after approval from main maintainers. Thanks, -- Maxim
