Last week (thanksgiving):

Finally developed a workaround for CF paging kernel bug that still
affords decent performance.  This will allow us to boot off the CF.
It isn't the most ideal fix, but it will allow us to continue
development and even ship while looking for a more correct fix in lower
priority mode.

This week:

Submitting several pieces of code to the Linux kernel folks including
several minor bug fixes and the DS1511 real time clock driver and the
Sibyte watchdog driver.

Will start helping Larry develope a better root file system creation
framework that is more stabil and meets our requirements better.

Formal architecture of an upgrade method for our Linux based
product will be started this week.  We will have the old method in
place in time for our deadline, but we will be working on replacing
that with a better method.
