[Paparazzi-devel] Armel Port of GCS

[Gareth Roberts]

Hello all

I am currently in the early stages of porting the main parts of gcs to armel along with packaging for debian lenny.  I've got xmllight and ivy-c built up,but am having serious problems with ivy-ocaml, as the makefile specs the native compiler (which doesn't exist for armel). I have no experience with ocaml,and dropping in ocamlc doesn't work.

I am carrying out this port in order to ultimately run gcs on nokia n8*0 devices using maemo.  I believe that it could prove to be an excellent ground station device.  Once ported, the next step would be to 'hildonise' the interface slightly to make it more finger-friendly.

Further ideas I've had involve wimax and the internal gps...

Comments,suggestions,ideas and reasons this is stupid and won't work are all welcome!

Cheers
