Roadmap Cards ============== http://cards.linaro.org/browse/CARD-190 The card has been accepted by the TSC and has moved to the engineering state with development going full speed.
A big.LITTLE update was presented to the TSC to share the current state and future vision of the project. Shown were past deliverables, upcoming milestones, verification and testing strategies and issues and risks that affect the project.
Blueprints =========== Big.LITTLE MP blueprints have been updated to reflect the upcoming development iteration.

QA ===== The QA team is now running the sched_tests suite on a TC2 board with latest Android Image. See attached PDF for the details of the test runs.
Summary: Total Tests = 22 Tests Passed = 16 Tests Failed = 6
The cpu hotplug latency test should be ready to go soon.
Other Efforts ============= Vincent has performed some initial power measurements that look encouraging. He used an Android Jellybean image with MP3 playback and will repeat the tests with the inclusion of the ARM testsuite.
Benchmarking will soon be part of the big.LITTLE MP weekly output. This will give the development team some baselines on power and performance targets.
