No, wheezy because LCNC still runs on it. I understand a stretch release,
probably with an old 3.something rt kernel for a kernel is being worked
on. There are hideous problems with irq latency in later 64 bit kernels
so they are not able to do the stuff LCNC needs to do in anything
resembling realtime.

Frankly, I'd just as soon rip it out. I'm not knowingly using it and
neither is LCNC and its turned into a huge security liability I sure
don't need to have to worry about.
