Weekly Engineering News 41/2008: back to the basics

[Risto H. Kurppa]

Hi!

Just want to make sure everyone knows that the weekly engineering news
has been released again, see
http://lists.openmoko.org/nabble.html#nabble-td1336450|a1336450

I want to highlight this:
"We decided to focus our
engineering on just the basics, even less eye candy: Robust kernel,
fast boot time, basic telephony with great audio quality, powerful
configuration from the command line, hardware quality. That's it.
We will stop working on our Installer, Locations, Diversity and
Settings applications. We will get back to all this when the rest is
rock solid, but now is not the time. Feel free to pickup any of these
projects in the meantime"

I suppose this is generally a good thing to let the community do what
it can do (as long as community has the tools and so on to do it) and
Openmoko focus on the core stuff.

Comments?
