The development web site is currently slightly stale: http://dev.mvista.com/projects/405gp_status/main.html There is newer source on the ftp site than the web page describes (September 9) and there should be a newer version of source and an updated web page within the next few weeks. -Frank -- Frank Rowand MontaVista Software, Inc ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
