At the end of yesterday's IDS session there was a discussion on NEA and
how the HCD_Firmware_* would contain OS information. This is only
indirectly true. I think the firmware will have a manufacturer (and
possibly customer) specific name. The firmware incorporates various
components -- OS and applications -- to provide the basic function of
the device.
I don't think we want or need to get more specific for the initial
release. The firmware information can be used to insure only approved
code levels are used.
Any OS specific info that might be required would be known by the
manufacturer (device). We may need to enumerate these -- including no OS.
