Current arm* ports
------------------
armel - how long to still be supported? devices still available for sale.
	very cheap devices.
	lacking widespread kernel support inside Debian, all custom kernels
	NAS boxes, plugs - eventually will need to be reconsidered.
	Built for minimum ARMv4T, could move to v5 but performance
	improvement would be small.

armhf - ARMMP support with DTBs. Many more devices supported with a single kernel.
	Current standard ARM port across distributions.
	mostly still using dev boards for buildds, causing heat problems due to
	running 24/7 doing a lot of compilation.
	Marvell Armada XP and iMx.53 (v7).
	Can now drop the old v5 kernel flavour.
	New hardware?

arm64 - Already bootstrapped. In the main archive. 2buildds.
	Concerns for release but expected to be fine.
	Still using dev boards, Juno, with USB disks.
	Race to get to correct percentage for the release.
	different dependency loops have been broken on each of the
	two new ports, so different speeds.

arm64 laptop project.

	replacement motherboard for Thinkpad x220.
	Open Hardware.
	Tomorrow 2:30pm? Check schedule.

Donated hardware:

	Banana Pi boards. Steve Langasek.
21:50 < m4r> The A20 in the BananaPi should work with the Debian 3.16 in Experimental.
21:50 < m4r> I am running it on different A20-based hardware.
21:51 < m4r> There is no official DTB for the BananaPi yet, but Hans de Goede has written a preliminary DTS file 
             for that board, which has not yet been accepted upstream, but probably will be in the near future.
21:53 < m4r> Ian Campbell and I are working on support for Allwinner-based devices in Debian. If you have
             questions, feel free to ask.
21:54 < m4r> I'll look into proper support for the BananaPi this weekend.

Donated software:

	Development Solutions Group at ARM.
	compilers, debuggers, profilers ...
	DS-5 Development Studio.
	32bit and 64bit targets.
	Debian Edition free for DD's.
	ds.arm.com/debian
	License Request with DD login.
	email encryped with your GnuPG key with the licence number.
	self-extracting shell script into home directory. ~/DS-5
	also an Eclipse plugin
	out of tree kernel module or perf can provide extra functionality.
	web forum: http://community.arm.com/groups/tools
	pawell.moll@arm.com
	Streamline can run natively on ARM, debugger not tested yet.

Questions:

	Raspbian - not enough time to actually integrate into Debian
	and no desire for an ARMv6 port.

	Potentially move armel up to v5 but not enough to get to v6.

	C++ compliance with armel issues with v4 and v5?
		Could be an issue for Jessie+1
		helpers exist in the kernel but will be v.slow.
		Can be emulated.
		Atomic helpers for older arm run in usermode -
		more expensive than native or newer hardware.
		Limited package set to exclude these packages?

	armel to be the first partial port?
	gcc will retain armv4 support for some time yet.
	v4 hardware is still being produced.

Mini DebConf in Cambridge, hosted by ARM.

Bare metal cross-toolchain now in the main archive.

	armhf boards support with DI and flash-kernel
	talk to vagrant to get more support.
