14 I am also interested in this.
15
16 I am also wondering if anyone have an idea about how long time it will
17 take before the uclibc-0.9.28 gets marked as stable.
18
19 We will probably start moving a libc based system over to uclibc in
20 january. I hope to use gentoo as a base for this, but I would prefer to
21 wait til 0.9.28 get stable to avoid another bigger update.
