Re: bootloader finished

Hi,

This is great news. Sadly, I haven't had much time lately. As soon as 
someone makes an image that runs with this new bootldr then I can do 
some testing and can put up the necessary information on the site for 
others to get started.
I would like to see a GPE image get to the same stage as the Opie image 
though. I have been doing some testing with the current one and I'm 
tending a little more to the X11 variant at the time.

I think the progress of OpenSIMpad will continue, but slowly. Maybe you 
shouldn't be so negative in your publications (e.g. OpenEmbedded 
Newsletter) about OpenSIMpad. I think you scare more people off than 
encourage support that way. It's O.K. to state the progress is very slow 
because of lack of support, but stating something like "If there won't 
be a drastic increase of volunteers, I don't see a future for 
OpenSIMpad." may be a true statement, but it doesn't encourage support.

I still believe that we can offer more to the SIMpad community than CE 
ever will :)

Let's get the next release under way.

Regards,
Chris Martin
