BoF: Meet and Chat about Open Source in Automotive!
summary
Room-style discussion format focused on concrete problems and solutions: progress on an AGL SOV reference platform with Honda and Toyota involvement, ELISA links to Red Hat for safety, and practical pain points like proprietary SOC boot chains, vendors refusing BSP/firmware, and reliance on Raspberry Pi/BeagleBone for development. Topics include OTA updates, zonal controllers, cost and membership models, and gritty toolchain issues such as Yocto kernel config fragments and messy NXP BSP layers. Good if wanting operational detail and real-world blockers.
