Time is Ready for the Civil Infrastructure Platform
summary
Civil Infrastructure Platform builds a Linux-based base layer from kernel upward with companies funding maintainers from Toshiba Siemens Codethink and PlatHome and an explicit goal of super long-term support for 10+ years to match 25–50 year device lifetimes. It commits to a selection process and backport policy, declares Linux 4.4 chosen as the initial CIP kernel, maintains separate branches for preempt‑RT, and runs a distributed hardware testbed that validates on real devices from Cortex‑M4 class up to medical/plant servers.
