Hello Chris,

basically I thought that we should have two versions with the purpose to
try whether everything can be compiled with or without as much features
as possible. That "minimal" provides the smallest footprint that is
possible is more or less a side effect. The third version ("default")
should be the one that matches most use cases.

If we find out in the future that there are a lot of use cases that need
some other configuration (for example something between "minimal" and
"default") we just add a forth version to the officially supported ones.
But I wanted to start with only few versions. It's the same as for the
BSPs: Each additional one adds extra testing effort.

I'm not sure whether the names are the best ones. They are only the ones
that I first came up with. Please feel free to suggest better ones.

Best regards

Christian
