It's on the <http://www.vsr.si/ecos/patches>. But there seems not much
interest for it, comparing to my NE2000/RTL8019 hack and the VMware-net
patch.
Jifl & David,
According to FSF proposal, David and the other authors are willing to
assign the copyright license to eCos. (FSF states they were given that
right when they assigned copyright to it). All the mail was CC-ed to
You, Jifl in the time when You seemed to be on a leave.I think the whole
thing stopped when David and me argued about the proposed copyright
header in-there and decided to wait for You.
Anyhow a decent DoC and IDE flash card support would make the eCos
suitable for use on cheap SBC PC-s, where, according to my tests eCos
provides better real-time performance comparing to Linux or RTLINUX.
It proved cheaper for me to buy five piece of such industrial SBC
computers than start a production of five simple ARM7 based boards.
