USB fxload what's new?

USB fxload what's new?

[XOL]

Hello.
I'm going to use fxload utility for our USB project. 
I have a few questions:

1. The last release is 2 years old. Does anyone still working on it
2. The EEPROM download via second stage loader do not allow to write data into 
first 7 bytes of EEPROM which contains 0xBx code and Product,Vendor,Device ID. Why?
3. Who is the owner of the fxload CVS in case I will provide patch ?

Thank you.

Not that I know of.  I think it "just works" :)

Hm, I don't know.

You can send patches to this list.  CC: me, so I notice them so I
remember to apply them to the cvs tree.

thanks,

The original goal was to support booting from
the EEPROM, which doesn't use that mode ...
and I never saw a good patch to add that
particular "IDs only, no code" EEPROM mode.

Got patch?  :)
