>Hi all, one more vote this week. This is for Linutronix, a name
>that
>is probably well known to most of you. Please vote yes/no on
>Linutronix as YP Participant.

>Description in their words:
>
>linutronix as a linux service provider is using Yocto on variant
>customer projects where we do adapt the basic Yocto "bsp" from one
>of
>the hardware vendor or system vendor like phytec, to the needs of
>the
>end user. We are also offering and doing Yocto trainings in order
>to
>assist customers to be able to use Yocto and, for advantaged
>users,
>fully understand Yocto and be able to use it in total.
>
>We also are, as one of the contributor to the mainline kernel (-->
>Preempt-RT patch; see tglx, who is one the owner of linutronix),
>always convinced on open source tools and we believe in the idea
>of
>Yocto as a tool to leverage the use of Linux in the industry. We
>will
>be happy to assist to bring our RT knowledge in the Yocto project
>on
>different levels.
>
>We are also working on convincing some of our customers (which are
>producers of hardware modules) to switch from their own,
>proprietary
>based build systems (--> ptxdist) to Yocto. Here, a membership in
>Yocto would be very helpful. This will show our customer our
>strong
>believe in Yocto. And we are working on them to offer their
>adaptions
>as a layer to the relevant Yocto project they are based on with
>their
>product.
