When OMAP3 came out, the only compilers for C6000 were expensive,
closed-source compilers. Now, there is support in mainline GCC for
C6000. As the BeagleBoard.org community, we have to work together to
enable use of the DSPs if they are of interest to the
community---there aren't any barriers in our way.
