Re: What do we do with legacy cRIO when we get Athena?

Do we need a project to create a replacement for vxWorks as the cRIO base OS?

Do we have enough info to make such a project practical?
vxworks doesn't have a time locked license, so you don't have to replace it. Windriver Workbench does. People have already been working on gcc compilers. See http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/projects/c--11_toochain
