Hi everyone,

We have registered a session for cross-distribution collaboration issues. Right new it has been preliminary scheduled for Wed 30th 12.10pm. There should also be google hangout for remote attendance.

I suggested a couple of items for Agenda:

• Review status of various distributions ARMv7 and ARMv8 support
• State of Single zImage kernel for distributions
• Discuss boot environment standardization (U-Boot/UEFI/GRUB best

practices, dtb file install locations)

• Getting remaining OSS software ported to ARMv8
• Identifying common pain points Linaro could solve

Anything else you might want to standardize on ARM linux? Feel free to reply here and I'll add it to the list of things to talk about :)

Sorry I was unable to attend. I've looked over the slides a bit, was anything in particular decided about how / where bootloaders should place things? I saw a recommendation of /boot/dtb/... for where device trees ought to go. Thanks!
