Re: Status of 440GP port

Hi,

After listening to the email thread so far, I have a rather simple
question, is there any difference current or planned between the bk
repositories?
linuxppc_2_4: the stable branch
linuxppc_2_4_devel: the stable branch testing tree

both seem to be based on 2.4.19-pre4.

Thanks
Amit
