Whiteboard

[rsalveti, Apr 3, 2012] This image would be useful for big.LITTLE and a few other use cases. Work to be covered with the live-build tools and scripts already used to generate the nano images for precise.
[dzin, Apr 19, 2012] Will push this out to a future milestone due to lack of resources and exernal influences.
[dzin, Apr 27, 2012] Move to backlog for clarification
[dzin, Jun 19, 2012] Still no resource, possible for 12.08
[dzin, Aug 17, 2012] reduce to Medium priority
[dzin, Sep 20, 2012] Not valid anymore.
