Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Release Engineering :: General, defect)

Description

[John O'Duinn [:joduinn] (please use "needinfo?" flag)]

Last week, I bought 7 apc.io boards before they went out-of-stock again; they were delivered this morning to the office.

Details at http://apc.io/product/. Based on how we evaluated previous boards, I plan on sending boards to ctalbert, jmaher, blassey tomorrow. Anyone else?

Did we buy pandas instead? I forget

panda boards don't have the same hardware specs that we needed for armv6.  I don't think we made a final decision on this.

Yes we did. The final decision was that we were not going to spend huge amounts of money and time to support a platform (armV6) that is slowly passing in obsolescence. We're not going forward with apc.io.
