I remember seeing this and adding it to my list to investigate further
both because I own Squeezeboxes and because of the use of Fedora and
in particular ARM.

Out of interest in the future would you be interested in using the
mainline Fedora kernels? I say the future as I'm aware up until now
there hasn't been the support.

I would be interested in feedback as to what would help you to go this
route as we move towards stabilising and maturing the i.MX6 and
Wandboard support. Also with other i.MX6 devices such as the Utilite
and Cubox-i becoming available will you be looking at expanding your
supported HW, would kernel support in Fedora assist you in doing that?

Finally is there other non kernel things that we can assist with that
would make it easier for the project to use Fedora ARM, or Fedora in
general?

That was music to my ears to see (pun intended :-P )
