Build tools
Do we get a modern gcc-4.3 and boost-dev? Reason is that for esp. C++ code, g++-4.x can compile template code to much smaller code than g++-3.4. This is more true for shared objects. With boost spirit and mpl, one can create amazing small binaries. (proposal by koos)

Will xcb be part of Fremantle? Lenny already based its Xlib on xcb. (proposal by koos)
Well, this discussion may not be about Fremantle, but about a future Maemo OS that I have no idea which codename it would have if it was accepted ;) But, based on your proposal. XCB, from xcb.freedesktop.org: The X protocol C-language Binding (XCB) is a replacement for Xlib featuring a small footprint, latency hiding, direct access to the protocol, improved threading support, and extensibility. I believe this would obviously be a good part of a mobile platform, if it does not conflict with applications and that it is not CPU intensive, and instead helps on CPU usage and memory usage. ---stskeeps 19:27, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
