Of noteworthy new features we have: - Support for local packages and package overrides - Documentation moved to asciidoc - Run make manual to generate it. - Custom GIT repo support for Barebox, similar to U-Boot - Internal and external toolchain fixes and updates. Sysroot copying step optimized. - Linux kernel extensions infrastructure added. Xenomai + RTAI support. - Package dir / name arguments dropped from {GEN,AUTO,CMAKE}TARGETS - Support scripts moves to scripts, patch-kernel.sh renamed to support/scripts/apply-patches.sh. And the usual package version updates and bug fixes. See the CHANGES file for details: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/plain/CHANGES?id=2011.11_rc1 As mentioned in the Buildroot Developer Day report, I will create a next branch now and start merging in new features, rather than waiting until 2011.11 is released: http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2011-November/047229.html Enjoy! -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard
