Hi Eric,
I am still in planning and evaluation phase. If I stay with tinyos,
I'll happy to commit sourcecode and update documentation. But it is
not my decision alone wich system to use.
But installation of tinyos is very simple if you don't do the
repo-freak. Just install compiler, clone the sources and you're done.
Now I am reading the programming guide and try to get some gpios
toggling on my kit.
