I am passing this along as an FYI -
>In light of recent market developments around IP ownership,
>embedded systems manufacturers are researching OS alternatives
>to Linux. Developers and technical managers need to determine
>how software projects implemented in Linux might be transferred
>to other OSs - what portion of the original code can be preserved,
>whether similar functionality can be implemented, and how
>migration can be achieved.
>
>Join QNX Software Systems on September 29 for a technical web
>seminar, "Implementing Device Drivers - Migrating from Linux to
>a Microkernel OS," where David Donohoe, senior software developer,
>QNX Software Systems, will demonstrate how an existing Linux-
>developed driver can be migrated to the QNX(r) Neutrino(r) RTOS,
>preserving up to 80 per cent of the original software code
>development.
>
>Peter van der Veen, QNX chief architect, will discuss how
>POSIX APIs enable application portability between Linux and
>other OSs, allowing Linux developers to retain their programming
>model and implement a hard realtime embedded operating system
>such as QNX Neutrino.
