好事還是壞事? ELC 併入 OSDL
成立五年的 ELC(Embedded Linux Consortium) 於 2005 年 9 月 8 日落幕,併入 OSDL。
這個組織最大的貢獻,就是ELC Platform Specification (ELCPS)
雖然這個標準受到相當的歡迎,可是由於沒有明確的目標,最後還是沒有更新,我引用 Shohat 先生的話:
"The standards process foundered. I have always felt it was a victim of the recession that descended in 2003. There were pregnant areas to be explored, and we prepared a short list of next engineering tasks, such as improved power management, and a GUI. But we were never able to pull together the resources to get it done." - Murry Shohat
那麼,ELCPS接下來會如何呢? 沒有人知道,雖然 Shohat 先生一直抱持正面的態度。不論如何,未來的 Embedded Linux World,剩下兩個重量級的聯盟:
OSDL VS. CELF
