Canonical Will Make an Ubuntu Filesystem for Embedded Devices

"While Ubuntu runs fine on low spec hardware" just discredited the whole article. Two years ago it might have run fine on low spec (>= 0.5gb ram) but now you need 2 or 3 gigs just to load the bells and whistles and thats before getting any work done. (assuming ubuntu users do anything other than create themes and wallpapers and mp3 players)

Well ... hmm. I had the pleasure of meeting Mark Shuttleworth at OLS a while ago. Mark, So how about getting more involved in the Yocto Project? Or is Canonical still smarting from being "overlooked" by Intel and chooses to avoid something like this? Is Linaro not getting you what you need as its too ARM centric? Come on Mark. Why the hell create yet another way to do something? Canonical SHOULD focus on the common good. Or at least base your work on Yocto. That would go a long way to making it all just work.
