- Will we be getting an announcement in the mailing

There will be at least two steps involved. The first is changing the default configuration to one of the new libcs, a second one is removing oskit specific code from the packages. There will be some amount of time between the two steps.
Using the new libcs it possible right _now_, it's just that the default configuration hasn't been changed yet. But I guess that will happen not too long away. We will send a notice out when doing so.
- What is the current status of fiasco for ARM (cores
9 and above)? The FAQ mentions only about x86 with i486 and above, but, I found some ARM relevant code in l4sys/include-x2/L4API-l4x2/l4/arm. Is there anyone working with fiasco for ARM?
I do, and it works for me. Most of the relevant stuff is available for ARM. There are not many platforms supported right now so using it may cause some platform specific work to do.
