</div>It's a headline feature for 11.2.0 which is planned to be XO-1 and<br>
XO-1.5 . Unless we hit unexpected problems, XO-1 is supported.<br>
<br>
If you look under the hood, it will be a bunch of rpms that get<br>
integrated into 11.2.0, plus activity updates that make good use of<br>
them. In some cases, actiivites already support boards / robots so<br>
what happens is that it is now covered by our QA work, so bugs will be<br>
discovered and fixed.<br>
<br>
Crafty adventurous people can probably get them installed on 10.1.x<br>
:-) but that'll be unsupported.<br>
<br>
cheers,<br>
