So far I know of the following people being interested: Hans de Goede (avr-gcc, arm-linux-gp2x-gcc) Kevin Kofler (tigcc) Ralf Corsepius (rtems) Trond Danielsen (sdcc, avr-gcc, avr32-gcc, Analog Devices Blackfin) So assuming all named people are reading this, who's in? I'am in myself ofcourse and (see below) I believe Trond is in too. I think tigcc would be a great addition, so any chance you could start posting somewhat cleaned up specs for review, starting with the most basic components first? If you encounter any problems you cannot solve yourself, please contant me / us, I've got lots of packaging experience, perhaps I can help.
