Yes.

Any component of the "eCos port" however may be different. Essentially if 
there is code that _isn't_ already a part of the external project, it 
should either be contributed to that external project (for which that 
project takes responsibility) and included in its source base, or be 
contributed to eCos directly, meaning an assignment (ignoring the 
disclaimer approach for now).

We need the lines of responsibility for code to be clear.
