Upps. Sorry missed the GPL part.

We cannot accept plain GPL code into the eCos repository. Is the code
only available under GPL? Some parts of the kernel is dual licensed,
eg under MIT or BSD. We might consider such code.

Could you be more specific about what code we are talking about.

Nope. There was talk about making a second tree for code which could
not be modified GPL, but it is just talk so far.

Sorry for the confusion,
