Hi Eric (and team),

Are there still no plans to move on from Jethro?

I needed at least 2.1 to get layer support for RAUC. Which I hope ModalAI will support RAUC or SWUpdate out of the box at some point. Or another framework for OTA updates.

(I'm still a Bitbake/Yocto/Poky padawan but can report what I know!)

Our production VOXL2 build uses:
https://git.codelinaro.org/clo/ype/external/yoctoproject.org/poky/-/blob/f5a57e939e626a5b7c6de5b51799ca602ed355ed/meta-poky/conf/distro/poky.conf#L4
DISTRO_VERSION = "2.6.1"
DISTRO_CODENAME = "thud"

(I'm also pushing towards a new build with ubun20/kernel5.4, ~alpha level right now)
https://git.codelinaro.org/clo/ype/external/yoctoproject.org/poky/-/blob/yocto-upstream.lnx.4.0.r13-rel/meta-poky/conf/distro/poky.conf?ref_type=heads#L4
DISTRO_VERSION = "3.1.14"
DISTRO_CODENAME = "dunfell"

We are using VOXL2. From what I can see, this is also based on Jethro?

We are not planning to make any (substantial) updates to VOXL1 system image. A good option for you to consider could be to use Docker and run the core services on the host OS and your software inside docker. Communication can be done via MPA / ROS between host and docker.
