OLS 2005 - day 1

The spotlight of the first day is J. Corbet's Road map for the 2.6 kernel. It has interesting git talk and new features for the kernel. Very Informative.

The CELinux forum is holding an embedded BOF tomorrow sounds very interesting. Will also be meeting up with the ppc group tomorrow. XIP, and Power management will be excellent topics to be explored tomorrow.

Timesys is not doing particularly well as the real-time module is not making any sales and the notable exit of Jason M.

The bluetooth stack is a humongous beast to be honest. Intel's ACPI spec is another beast. Those two topics really make me feel like a small tiny potato.

Noted from today's display booth is that CELinux fixed the ARM compiler in thumb mode among other things. C++ is nowhere in sight for embedded computing.
