So, where things stand right now (and have stood for a while) is that the existing canadian recipes simply don't work. We've made them work internally, and then moved them up to using nativesdk/etc. That's also been finished and the engineer in question is now working on making it work in OE.dev. But for now, don't let the existing canadian stuff (which is broken) get in the way of fixing up other stuff. -- Tom Rini Mentor Graphics Corporation
