In the current work there is no attempt at letting the user pick rpm4 or rpm5. Personally I think we should leave this for 2.4M1. It's a major change and needs many eyes. > o Separate out elderly GPLv2 into a separate layer? > > yes, but maybe not for 2.3 if its a large effort. I suspect for 2.3 this would be a matter of moving a few recipes into another layer, which for testing purposes the autobuilder always includes. So that should just be a matter of move recipes, layer version bump, update autobuilder to conditionally fetch the layer. o Graphics stack vulkan changes? > > The "Go" changes hit before the vulkan.

Vulkan current requires a development snapshot of Mesa, needs tweaking of PACKAGECONFIG, and the only supported BSP doesn't work out of the box. Seeing it work is a great step forward but there's many open questions and whilst I'd love to put "Vulkan support" on the 2.3 release notes I'm not yet convinced we're ready. I guess it comes down to how long it takes the current queue to stabilise: the current fire is over the testing of minimal eSDKs. Ross
