I can't seem to find a site to download the OpenPic
specification. Anyone have a pointer or know where I can go to
get it.
Thanks in advance...

This one has come up yet again. Geert and I have asked AMD to fix this
oversight in their website redesign some time back but it's not yet
happened.

I've sent a copy of the PDF to you by private mail and have heard that
it's ok for us to do this in the interim if necessary. But please,
don't all come emailing me at once.

Geert - do you think there'd be a problem if I stuck this up on
printk.net|jonmasters.org?

Jon.

I'm not 100% sure, but the document can be freely used to implement OpenPIC, so
I think it's OK. But IANAL :-)

Hi Geert,

I've stuck a copy of the OpenPIC PDF at:

http://www.printk.net/pub/docs/openpic/

If AMD or anyone else objects then I'll take it down - I don't see why
they'd care about it - but since it's not listed anywhere else and the
guy we met from AMD thought it would be alright. Sometime soon I'll
add a link on my own website so google finds this much more easily.

Cheers,

Jon.
