[ptxdist] Difference between DIstroKit and OSELAS.BSP-Pengutronix-Generic

[ptxdist] Difference between DIstroKit and OSELAS.BSP-Pengutronix-Generic

[Alan Martinovic]

Hi there,

I'm trying to figure how DistroKit came to be and whats its relation
with OSELAS.BSP-Pengutronix-Generic.

Can you please comment/confirm if this is right (that is my current
perspective):

OSELAS.BSP-Pengutronix-Generic is the generic "directory structure"/"BSP
project strucure" in which through the use of ptxdist the BSP is
configured and built.

DistroKit is OSELAS.BSP-Pengutronix-Generic which has a set of suggested
platform configuration files for the popular boards (BeagleBone,
VersatilePB, RaspberryPi, VExpress).


And an off topic question:
Is the "How to become a PTXdist Guru - Pengutronix" available for public
contribution, and if so, how?

The "Generic" BSP is pretty old, while DistroKit is more or less a good
example for a fairly recent example BSP to start with.

Not yet; we have started to add Sphinx documentation support to PTXdist,
as we made good experiences with it for barebox; if you want to improve
the documentation, start there.
