Distro and Integration Deep Dive

The distro integration group hosts open discussions about the software needs common to all major Linux distros, Android, and bespoke distros used on embedded devices.

“Why is it you’re all insistent on having ACPI support?”
“What is the minimum amount of RAM a board should have?”

General discussions and questions about viability of builds with low RAM that aren’t capable of updating packages etc. Not something RISE should dictate.
In General RISE is contributing to the Open Source Projects and there will not be any requirements/mandates by RISE. any requirements are left it up to the companies and their product offerings.

This group makes its meetings open to the public (the meeting link is on the groups wiki page).

Ensures open collaboration modeled after other libre software projects (Debian, Osmocom, etc).
The community sees the “total cost” of design decisions, not just the hardware ones.

Recently this has driven two major areas of discussion:

Ensure a consistent boot flow (installation portability across distros)
Responsibility for code updates below the OS (e.g. Who is on the hook for security bugs in OpenSBI?)

Website and Blog Update

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY RISE PROJECT!
Website updated, now with a blog, events page, separated topic pages, dedicated join page
Bug reports and comments welcome.
