APC – The Perils of Old Code..
The availability of additional kernel code – and functionality – is good news, but the APC kernel version is still a relative antique.. 2.6.32.9 is over 2 years old, now, and the latest ‘mainstream’ Linux kernel is 3.5.4, and 3.6 will soon be released… Assuming the focus is still on Android, then an update to Android 4.1 would give a 3.1.10 kernel version, which would – at least – support more modern Distros, like Fedora 17… Even 3.1.10 is now ‘functionally stabilised’ as far as further versions and patches are concerned..
If there is no newer kernel version available soon, or at least a statement that one will be available, then there is a risk that the APC may be seen as a dead-end device as far as further development is concerned..
