Dave,

I agree with you when you say that Linaro toolchains are not easy to use
for new visitors.

I will improve the http://www.linaro.org/downloads/ page (hopefully this
week) to improve this.

Marcin, thanks for the status.

I created a wiki page about the binary cross-compiling toolchains:
https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/ToolChain/BinaryCrossToolchains

Please correct me if there is anything wrong or incomplete. I plan to
use a link to this page on http://www.linaro.org/downloads/.

Thank you in advance for having a look.

Cheers,

Michael.
