Sony has used LTT in the past, and we plan to use it for a few more development projects underway currently. It would be nice if we didn't have to wait for all the pieces to fall together for each new kernel release (arch support, trace point patches, desired sub-system stability). Having seen LTT used for a number of years, I'd have to agree with Karim's assessment that it would probably be "neater" today if so much time hadn't been spent over the years wrangling it into the kernel. ============================= Tim Bird Architecture Group Co-Chair, CE Linux Forum Senior Staff Engineer, Sony Electronics E-mail: tim.bird@am.sony.com =============================
