BProc 5.0 is in Git

Penguin Computing has graciously provided their version of BProc to the
project. Special Thanks goes to John Hawkes, the  Director or Software
Engineering and Andreas Junge VP of Engineering at Penguin for making this
happen.  In the next couple of weeks, we'll work at getting some packages
made from the code and posted on the files portion of the Sourceforge
site.

The code is targeted at a RHEL 5.4 Kernel, due to development priorities
at Penguin.  Expect to see a set of RPMs for the Kernel and the userland
codes for the unified process space code.

For now, we are going to focus on the kernel side of development.  Our
goal is to get the necessary changes into the upstream Kernel. We will
begin work shortly on a version of BProc that targets the current
development Linux Kernel.


As such, the beoboot and related code is going to be left untouched in the
CVS tree.

The Git Repository is live here:

http://bproc.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb-index.cgi


Expect it to go through some changes in the future as we get it cleaned up
and ready for distribution.


I still have an emergency hold on all email traffic to this list due to
the high percentage of SPAM.  I will pass through all message that come
from real human beings, and that are regarding the BProc code base.


The code is very different from the last released version of bproc 4.0.  I
will post more details in the future about how to get a Kernel built, why
we made the decisions we did, and what the plan is for the future.  I am
very excited about this project, and hope to get some community momentum.


Thanks Again to everyone who made this happen.
