Readynas OS 6.3.3 for the rest of us
I noticed that Readynas OS 6.3.3 is now in production. But only for the RN20x series. Will the rest of the line up be excluded from this version?

I didn't say it wouldn't run. I said it "never ran" - meaning that the RN200 series was released with 6.3.x firmware. That's my recollection anyway.

What are the real benefits of 6.3.3, if most of the features are on the Readynas layer?
The newer kernel is supposed to be faster (at least with some workloads). Newer kernels are also easier for developers, and avoids the need for back-porting security patches.
