I followed think link on http://openocd.sourceforge.net/ to the GIT
repository and clicked the "download a snapshot" link at the top of
the page:

   http://sourceforge.net/p/openocd/code/ci/master/tree/

I asked on the mailing list a few days ago about using 0.6.1 vs git
head, and was told to use a git snapshot.  So I used a git snapshot.

Apparently so.

Well, downlaoding a snapshot requires a single click and doesn't
require that you have git installed, so I don't think it's "easier".
It does seem to be better supported.  :)

Um, OK, but how can you use an Olimex JTAG tiney without an ft2232
driver when that device is based on the ft2232?

Don't you still end up with an ft2232 driver?
