The other thing is that I doubt the commercial viability of such project. It can be a fun project but in the end without the support of a commercial toolchain (eg: IAR, Keil, etc), I am not so sure how successful this will be. -- Xiaofan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
