Wind River, a device software optimization company, just announced Wind River Linux 3.0, based off of Linux kernel 2.6.27 and GCC 4.3, and reportedly it is the most feature-rich OS offering from the company thus far. It includes more than 500 packages, which is about 250 more than in previous versions. Wind River Linux is designed for specific industries including aerospace and defense, consumer, industrial, networking, and medical, and was previously segmented in different packages for different features and hardware support for each industry, but has now been consolidated into one standard system.

I started my embeded journey on Wind River's VwWorks. it didn't take long for me to go straight to QNX. I was glad when Wind River went with linux (cost a lot less for them to develop their inhouse stuff now). I will have to give 3.0 a try, i was fairly unimpressed with version 2, but i will stay open minded.
