And I stop work on that UFFS stub package for SIMRAM, as UFFS is getting
now a chance to seat on the offered Flash NAND layer from eCosCentric.
This is great, thank you.
Only one thing. I disliked an idea "a package upon your request". IMHO,
if eCosCentric said "A", let they say and "B": public the URL for their
GPLed package(s). It seems for me that companies which worry by "The GPL
Infection" will not use it and if they will, that's a care their lawyers.
But hobby projects will say THANKS for such an open ecos package(s).
Excuse this thought.
