Hello Yury, |

This is Fantastic news. What I would suggest is to jump straight to the |
21 |
cutting edge of ARM limited Technology and work on the 64 bit Arm |
22 |
security issues, so you are 'ahead' of the big push in Arm64 deployment. [1] |

Surely embedded-gentoo will deploy on Aarch64 [2]. If you master that, |
27 |
you are going to become an extremely valuable player in the embedded arm |
28 |
security space, imho. Perhaps you could even update the embedded gentoo |
29 |
handbook and add a section for aarch64 (arm64) and security on the |
30 |
gentoo-embedded arm releases. [3] Perhaps you would be interested in |
31 |
the port of lilblue to arm64 ? [4] Below are a few links you may find |
32 |
interesting. [5]. |
