Motorola Web Site

From: Johnnie Peters <hidden>

Hi Everybody,

This mail has two purposes.  First of all Motorola
has finally got a web page for linux.  There are a few
things up including some updates to the pci services 
changes previously posted to this list and various
source file to get linux up on our PowerPC platforms.
Give it a try at:

www.mcd.mot.com/linux

Second, I apologize for previously posting the diffs and
howto for the pci services to these lists. I, however, did
not have any other means until now.  Since Alan Cox and others
were complaining that Motorola had not posted these changes
I felt I had no other choice.

To those of you on slow connections I do realize what I did.
You will notice that I do not mail in html or anything else
that bloats mail box sizes.  Sorry for any inconvenience.

Johnnie Peters
Motorola Computer Group

While it is nce to have motorola *effectively* supporting linux
may I make the follwoing comments :

    1) The form you need to fill to access patches is quite
    painfull and if the purpose is only to notify users of
    patch changes, then email would be sufficient...
    2) The patch for 2.2.10 is 1.5 MB. It could have been 
    compressed!!!

Thanks for the work anyway...

Free software folks are used to 'stick it somewhere for ftp' being a
viable option. I guess in Motorola you have to do things the official way

Im sure your intentions were good and Im glad the code is out. I've been
looking through it a bit but wont start to hack on it hard till Im back
from .ca
