Subject: [rtl] Version 3 in Beta


Dateline: Socorro New Mexico.
January 3 2000.
FSMLabs releases BETA RealTime Linux V3.0 based on Linux 2.3.x
Bug reports to support@fsmlabs.com

Just when you thought that the Y2K crisis was over, BETA for
Version 3.0 RTLinux is released. This version is based on Linux 2.3.35
and contains nothing very new at the API level
but the brave, talented, and
Y2K compliant RTLinux maintainers need to update their packages.
SMP does not yet work on this beta, but, if you look, you will find most
code is there. This version of RTLinux relies on the Linux IRQ rewrite to
make the RTLinux patch simpler.  There is a Beta version of RTLinux V3
for PowerPC available on a delayed GPL to the general public and 
being released to Synergy Micro. If you would like to see PPC code
on a non-GPL basis right away, please send email to yodaiken@fsmlabs.com.
If you can wait, PPC should release before LinuxExpo in NYC.

Version 2.x is still under active development and is the production platform.
Mutexes will be released
this week plus a simplified V1 compatability patch.
