Hi Tristan, This is for my appreciation for AmForth work already done that is used for the GLANN® project. The secondary words have been completed, it is now being reviewed and being optimized and will be added to the download when ready. GPLv3 doesn't require the source for a derivative work be supplied if no distribution of the work is occurring, which is the case here (so this download is a courtesy). Along with this courtesy the GLANN® project needs to protect its IP, so some files cannot be included like the assembly abstraction layer (yes it can be reverse engineered but that's not an issue). Also AmForth will be acting like a gateway into the network by calling GLANN routines (or linked into) and not the other way around, this way the source for GLANN project doesn't need to be made available under GPLv3 when and if (firmware) distribution takes place. Anybody in the GPLv3 chain of work can call for the enforcement of this licensing agreement, it is still unclear where the actual chain starts. Maybe George's approach is better after all, being less complicated overall (with deployment & licensing)???
