Hi All,

I have ported the uDHCP DHCP server to eCOS.

I think this can be usefull , because for the momemt there is no DHCP server package available with eCOS.

As told in the FAQ, my contribution got the form of an epk package under GPL.

I would like to have feedback, comments , bug reports and so on , from all of you that could find it usefull.

On the other hand, Can someone of you explain me how can this package integrate the eCOS CVS ? and what is the process to follow ?


GPL code cannot be integrated in the eCos CVS. The GPL license for
uDHCP would mean that all of eCos had to be distributed as GPL. This
would also mean that all of the application would also have to be
GPL. We don't want this, since people use eCos for writing commercial
applications.

What we can do though is make it available on the contribution download page, <http://ecos.sourceware.org/contrib.html>. If this is okay by you then mail me or Andrew the EPK off list and we'll put something up on that page with your name in lights!
