Hello everybody.

I'm Claudio, the author of the original email.

As you have seen, our web page allows to download the ScicosPack, which 
works with the Xenomai POSIX skin.

Actually, during the last years, we have not maintained such software, 
mainly due to the lack of feedback or specific requests from 
universities or companies. For some recent project based on the x86 
platform we have used RTAI + Scicos + Comedi. On our embedded platforms, 
instead, we usually prefer Xenomai, but we didn't have any request for 
code generation, yet.

@Markus: can you please give me more details about what you are looking 
for ? If I've understood, you work at the university. Indeed, we are a 
spin-off company of the university (Scuola Sant'Anna, Pisa, Italy) and 
we are very interested in continuing our relationship with research 
institutions.

Best regards,
