Moving on

[Philippe Gerum]

It has been two years since I stepped down as Xenomai's lead maintainer.
In the meantime, Jan took over and did a very good job in this role as
expected.

Since this transition period is now taking an end, I'm switching focus
to the EVL project [1] I have been nurturing for some time, with the
goal to make it production-grade next year. In a nutshell, EVL is about
laying the groundwork for dual kernel systems to become first-class
citizens of Linux. This work includes a SMP scalable real-time core
which can be maintained with common kernel knowledge over the latest
mainline kernel series, a standard driver model, and a single, compact API.

I will still review patches coming my way for the I-pipe ARM and arm64
trees for a few weeks, until the next maintainer is appointed for these
architectures. I'll be around to help with Xenomai core issues if needed.

Thanks,

Thank you for your invaluable work! 
As a software developer in the real time control field I must say that going to work is a real joy, and Xenomai is a part of that. Hope you feel the same.

I am certainly looking forward to see what will come out of EVL, but before that: Make sure to have a real Happy Holidays !

Thanks very much Philippe for all the hard work and explanations on
how the ipipe works.  Very interested in trying out EVL once work
calms down.

Philippe,

It's been great to work with you on Xenomai when my work has allowed me to do 
so. I really hope that we can stay in touch and continue to work together in 
the future. I suspect at some point some of the folks in the PPC circles I 
work with are going to have an interest in trying out EVL. I'm especially 
hopeful the end result will be one where a casual user can contribute without 
having many different contexts to keep track of in their heads. ;)

Have a Merry Christmas. I hope your kid is back to being a soccer star by now. 
;)

Steven

Doesnt seem like you will move too far away, good luck with EVL (and getting it upstreamed if that’s the aim).

I am very excited about this as well, and look forward to diving into this soon.  Many, many thanks for your work on Xenomai throughout the years and for running this project with kindness, professionalism, and patience.

Hi All,

Today (September 6th) is my last day at Intel. Working on hardware 
virtualization support in Xen gave me the opportunity to work with some 
really great people in the past year.

Because I'm leaving to pursue other opportunities not directly related 
to virtualization, my involvement in the community will be significantly 
less than it has been in the last few months.

Thank you all for making this a great learning experience.
