Comments

Lee,

Thanks, I added Wind River under embedded - I think that's more consistent with the others in the same category.

[Lee Courtney]

Stu - you forgot WindRiver under Linux distributions. Our Linux distros (Network Equipment, Consumer Devices, and General Purpose) meet all three of your criteria.

I'd also 1) put Montavista under Linux distributions rather than Embedded System Support, or 2) rename the category to better fit what MV, TT, and Timesys do.

Cheers,

Lee Courtney
Wind River (X MontaVista)

maybe you should use a commercial open source wiki to maintain the list publicly, like with Socialtext
