Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] doc: remove outdate list of supported OS
Date: Thu,  3 Aug 2017 16:54:15 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170803145415.15047-1-thomas@monjalon.net> (raw)

It is very difficult to list OS which are really supported.
Instead of continuing this unrealistic effort, a more reliable list
of tested platforms and OS is updated in the release notes.
