[Buildroot] [RFC] Making clear that Buildroot is no longer uClibc specific

[Buildroot] [RFC] Making clear that Buildroot is no longer uClibc specific

[Thomas Petazzoni]

Hello,

Historically, the Buildroot project was started by uClibc
developers. Nowadays, Buildroot can be used regardless of the choice
of C library, but many people still think it's an uClibc-only
solution.

Therefore, the following patch proposed to switch to a dedicated
#buildroot IRC channel instead of #uclibc.

In addition to that, it'd be great if the mailing-list had
buildroot at buildroot.org as its official address, and if the bug
tracker had http://bugs.buildroot.org as its official address.

What do you think?

Regards,

Thomas

I'm all in favor!
This also would render the busybox.net mailing list alias redundant (I
always found it confusing that busybox used .net and uclibc and
buildroot used .org)

Is there anything in progress regarding this?
The IRC channel is already changed. What about the bug tracker and
mailing list? Is this something that simply needs to be requested, or
is there much more to it than that?

No, that's about it. DNS/apache/mailman changes. I'll try to get it all
resolved before the end of the month (and final 2011.11 release).
