[arm-allstar] Package Repository

[David McGough]

Hi Dave,

Yes, we have already got a static repository; it's just not useful for the 
current publicly released code. Over the last few months, the RPi3 has 
continued to be a rapidly moving target, with enhancements for peripheral 
support, etc. This progression is expected with any new product, like the 
RPi3.

However, I think we're really close to making the OS revision switch.

If you're interested in reviewing the currently proposed package archive, 
the URL is below. Again--don't use this with any RPi2/3 earlier than our 
1.4 (non-public, testing-only) release. And, it is not yet complete.
