Hi again folks,

Just to let you know I had some feedback on the GENIVI Layer Management
list :
http://lists.genivi.org/pipermail/genivi-ivi-layer-management/2015-September/003048.html
.

So doing a backport seems to be the right thing to do. Thus, I just
finished the IVI-Shell patch, and sent it for review :
https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/#/c/4103/1 (please review !).

For reference, here is a picture of IVI-Shell running on the image on a
Renesas Koelsch board :

It also works on QEMU, of course.
