Hi folks!
I'm sharing the notes from our regular meeting that was held
yesterday. We had quite a lot of updates around what we're doing, as
Linaro is just starting the new BUD20 cycle.
More details about the meeting etc. at the end.
Administrative note: this was my last call as tech lead for the DTE
project. I'm leaving my job at Arm and Linaro, off to pastures
new. Somebody else will be picking up the DTE project work. More news
on that soon I hope - watch this space.

Notes
=====
1. Steve's last call
a. Somebody else will hopefully pick up before the next meeting
2. Arnd has set up a shared central repo for some projects to use
a. already done, just not in public - hosted on github alongside
the devicetree spec and website repos
b. name undecided - let's go with "devicetree-source"
c. He's going to start working with the U-Boot folks to see how to
use that
d. Will be pulling in changes from Linux, updating by release cycle
rather than automatically
e. We'll integrate automated schema checking here
f. Jens looking to start on OP-TEE then TF-A, using this tree too
1. OP-TEE already uses multiple git repos, so adding another one
sounds easy enough
3. Alexandre looking to continue the DT ID at runtime work
a. Waiting on a question to David Gibson, working through review
from the last version of the patch
4. LITE has an engineer lined up for RTOS work, should be introduced
soon
5. System DT update
a. Working out spec updates to allow definition of bus firewalls
b. Lopper ready for an alpha release - git repo on the same
devicetree-org github account should be ready to go ASAP
Background information about DTE
================================
Linaro engineers are working on a range of initiatives in the DT
space, collected together as a project called Device Tree Evolution
(DTE). We hold a discussion call every second Wednesday at 1600 UTC /
1700 BST / 1200 EDT / 0900 PDT. If you would like to be invited,
please ask me (Steve McIntyre).
This is a summary of the notes from the most recent meeting. I aim to
tidy up and post the meeting notes shortly after each meeting. The raw
notes are published at
