OK. I'm just sorting out the directories and scriptage to get both the old and new toolchains apt-able from emdebian.org. I also have you cross-toolchain build scripts and files and patches there in a build dir, but I started pdating the script so it would check for new gcc releases and try updated builds before realising that this all gets quite complicated (need to back off and keep the old version if new builds fail - what do you do if some builds work and some don't) and failing to finish. I'll mail you details on this later nikita. > > I'd like Nikita to get more involved as he has > > clearly become the debian-cross-toolchain man :-) > > What exactly do you mean? > I'm currently more or less maintaining cross-gcc, cross-binutils and > dpkg-cross.

We have this stuff - it's mostly just a matter of tidying things up a bit and updating the website to explain what is available, how people install it, what is known to work and what isn't etc. If you are happy to look after this bit of the emdebian project so that your work is a bit more visible and accessible I think that would be great.
