Great work Andrei. I have a couple of CHiPs here and was trying to decide whether meta-sunxi would provide what was needed or whether we needed a custom layer.

I've been hugely impressed with what Docker+Resin gives me for application deployment management so I'd like to look at how easy it is to take your Linux/u-boot CHiP support and deploy via Resin. 

Are you at the point you have a base OS image for CHiP with Resin support? If not I would be interested in having a look at this with you.

Cheers,

Alex
