I'd love to see this succeed. Vendors are shipping their custom (and expensive) toolchains with a variety of kernels and that makes it hard to escape lock in.

I'd love to see this succeed. Vendors are shipping their custom (and expensive) toolchains with a variety of kernels and that makes it hard to escape lock in. I'd also love to see some of the very good debug tools from Keil, GreenHills, IAR, etc. integrated with Eclipse with standard support for Cortex-based SoCs. That would go a long way toward standardisation and we could finally get rid of the awful IDEs from those vendors.
