[Fedora-electronic-lab] Fedora Electronic Lab support for openmoko hardware development

Hello openmoko developers, As part of our commitment to the opensource hardware community, Fedora Project has a sub project called Fedora Electronic Lab. http://chitlesh.fedorapeople.org/FEL/ Fedora Electronic Lab strives to provide a robust platform (based upon solely opensource software) for electronic hardware development platform for everyone. Since most of our users are also interested in opensource hardware such as openmoko, etc. Hence for Fedora-12 release, we have included the trunk version of kicad, openocd, and fped. We hope that you, openmoko developers, can now work out of the box with svn co https://svn.openmoko.org/trunk/gta02-core/ cd gta02-core/ make update make sch instead of this time consuming process http://svn.openmoko.org/trunk/gta02-core/docs/GETTING-STARTED That said, we sincerely hope that our contribution might help you seduce more contributors easily. We currently have the following list of packages under the Fedora Electronic Lab umbrella for the following architectures (i686,x86_64, PPC and PPC64): http://chitlesh.fedorapeople.org/FEL/list.html If you feel that we still lack tools that are important to the openmoko's development, please do not hesitate to let us know. We also want to hear from you, how we can work together so that we can provide you a proper development platform.
