can i get some help being removed from this mailing list? i'm not sure what email address i used to sign up. i may have done something like [email protected] where the "+msp430" would help me identify the email based on the "to" field. i also might have done it from my work email which is some form of danny or daniel @avaak.com, possibly with the "+msp430" or maybe "+mspgcc". any help at all would be much appreciated.

My colleagues and I do not use C++ in embedded applications because of the bloat that it creates, and its dependence on dynamic memory (slow and also dangerous). Some people say C# might be a compromise for embedded applications but I still think it's a waste of resources (and also too M$ for me). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
