MontaVista adds big-endian ARM11 port

,----[ Quote ]
| MontaVista announced what it calls the "first-ever" support in a Linux 
| environment for ARM11 processors in big-endian mode. Presumably, the 
| big-endian port of MontaVista Linux opens the door to more IPv6-friendly 
| mobile devices, or greater use of ARM in telecommunications, where big-endian 
| has long been standard.

compel Microsoft to obey the law. It’s quite revealing that Mr. Gates equates
the two."

Embedded Linux research report ships

,----[ Quote ]
| EDC noted that some 40 percent of the survey's 500 respondents were targeting
| embedded Linux.
|
| [...]
|
| Also in the earlier reports, Andrews observed that the need for RTOS source
| code was "one of the reasons that proprietary RTOSes created in-house for a
| specific system have long been popular, and now it's a primary motivating
| factor in the adoption of Embedded Linux."
|
| The now completed survey results are said to include "expert analysis" from
| Ann Thryft, a 20-year industry veteran. The report includes chapters on
| platforms, processors, tools, languages, security, target devices, mobile
| development, and of course, Linux.
