I think the key word was micro, but is that off topic (ignoring
subject)?

Many (such as lennart and some kernel devs such as GKH even) seem to
think embedded applies only to the mobile world when in fact mobile is
a small fraction of it.

Even below Uclinux type systems, there is nuttx linux or rowebots for
example which is in a similar position to what mobile was in the generic
kernel.
