I'm sort of the current maintainer of the site and the project, but have no access to the mailing list setup at all.

I'm a fairly busy person so I don't do much without being asked to do it, and my web-fu sucks pretty bad.

Sorry Jody, I don't want to sound nasty since I have done 0% contribution myself but we shouldn't have to tell you to add a link. When somebody like Bram Lohman emails the list that he has Elks running on an emulator and that is it freely available to download than you as the site admin should, as a bare minimum, add the link without one of us telling you to do so.

Since you are very busy (which I fully understand) can I suggest you share the admin details with a few more people or better speak to Mario to get a wiki page added.

Back to work :-)

Regards,
Hans.

If you want something in particular done, give me the resources and I'll get it done.

I am a bit disappointed that Rask Lambertsen's GCC
port and the Dioscuri emulator (which runs ELKS!) are not mentioned on the website, come on guys, it can't be that much work to add some hyperlinks...

This seems like the easiest thing to fix first, and
makes the project "look" better, so I'd be happy to
provide some updates to the site. Not too much for
now, just keeping with static pages- fixing broken
links, adding some (ie Rasks's port), etc. Does anyone
know who needs to be contacted to update the archive
mentioned on vger.kernel.org? Is this list still even
being archived, or do we have to "sign up" for it? (If
so, gmane comes to mind...)

Compiling ELKS under GCC is not going to be
easy but IMHO will be very beneficial for the wider embedded user community and
hence will/might increase the popularity of ELKS.

Sounds like great minds think alike :)
Not only is GCC much more popular and continuously
maintained, but apparently GCC (GAS, rather) uses AT&T
syntax, and BCC uses Intel syntax. Since Linux uses
GCC, it follows that modifying/porting to ELKS would
be easier if we also use GCC. -Ben
