Hi, I almost suggested the Gentoo wiki in my last post but since you
were heavily into Gentoo I assumed you were aware of that option but
for some reason did not want to use Gentoo.org
I would be nice to see some more action in gentoo embedded forum and
a wiki entry for ARM would be excellent. It may catch some expertise
that would be missed if hosted elsewhere.

Sorry Peter. I guess a was making a sweeping assumption since it was
linked from thier site and some of there staff are active here.
Thanks to you in that case for an excellent initiative.
peer support can be very useful, especially if backed up by some
authorative input from the makers.
