Buildroot started life as a test harness for uClibc.  It's maintained by the 
uClibc developers as a way of generating uClibc toolchains for various 
platforms, and building packages against uClibc.  It was only about a month 
ago that buildroot got its own mailing list rather than using the uclibc 
mailing list, and said mailing list is still "buildroot at uclibc.org".

Did this answer your question?
