Hi,
I'm organising a session at LDS to collate and prioritise hardware needs across Linaro.
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linaro/+spec/linaro-other-o-hardware-needs
If your team needs some hardware that isn't currently ordered then either come along to the session, or email me beforehand, and tell me:
* What hardware you need (type, quantity) * When you need it by * What you need if for (i.e. what won't be able to happen if you don't have it)
We'll then be able to use this to come up with a shopping list that we can request hardware from, and balance priorities if we can't have everything.
If the request is already on the Hardware wiki page then you don't need to re-send it.
Also, this isn't to say that if you don't mention it now you can't have it, but it will be helpful to have a comprehensive snapshot of the requirements before the session.
Thanks,
James

All I have is i.mx51 babbage. (Well, for next cycle, I can probably get i.mx53 boards from Freescale inside.) But it would be good for me to get one of the popular boards from other vendors to try out my WI for the next cycle.

- What hardware you need (type, quantity)
One Beagle or Panda is preferred, but other popular board also works.
- When you need it by
The best is UDS week, so that I can set it up with help from people to ensure it works.
- What you need if for (i.e. what won't be able to happen if you don't have it)
Blueprint K9.1 (LTP) WI, and possible Device Tree stuff.
