Looking at GPE and Angström it looks a little bit like application development and cross compilation has been neglected a little bit in the past. Now that people are improving the toolchain targets in OE I decided to start a small project to build some toolchains for Angström based filesystem images on a few devices.

Now we have the first one available: An ARMv4t one, updated to the latest OE standards and basically tested. It is available from kc labs. You can read about some interesting target devices there as well.

Like last year some of the projects here are present at LinuxTag fair in Berlin/Germany. The projects GPE, GPE Phone Edition and OpenEmbedded will be at the "Mobile and Embedded" booth at the LinuxTag fair and conference. It takes place at Berlin Expo Center from from May 28th to May 31st, 2008. The projects share the booth 112 (kindly sponsored by Tarent) in hall 7 with several other related projects.
You can expect to see a lot of funky devices running interesting mobile software there as well at the chance to meet some of the developers. We would be happy to meet you at LinuxTag!

The LinuxTag fair is one of the biggest Open Source related events in Europe. It is meant to attract all sorts of people interested and involved in Open Source and is a great opportunity for users, developers and business people to get in touch with each other.
