[BlueOnyx:23206] Re: Upcoming BlueOnyx 5210R additions -> 5310R

Hi all,

In case someone checks and wonders: The BlueOnyx SVN code repository now
has a new branch, called 5310R:

https://devel.blueonyx.it/trac/browser/BlueOnyx/5310R

This will eventually house the experimental Debian code to get a Debian
based 5210R equivalent up. At this time it just has the first basic
draft of the sausalito-devel-tools in it that (already) spits out DEBs
instead of RPMs. Eventually the rest of the BlueOnyx modules from the
5210R tree will get ported to 5310R as well.

So:

BlueOnyx 5210R = Latest BlueOnyx for the upcoming CentOS 8
BlueOnyx 5310R = Latest BlueOnyx for Debian 10.1 (same feature set)

Like said above: The CentOS 8 based 5210R will get priority. The Debian
based 5310R is more of a long term investment that might not be anywhere
near ready for the next couple of months.
