While working with Hypercom, I'd had the pleasure of helping to implement 
eCos onto power-Pc platform.
Notable mods we'd made, but not published, were to the memory caching macros 
(have an explanation for why the flush macros "did not seem to work", and a 
variation of the dlmalloc that allowed us to track instances of dynamic 
memory loss/corruption). Those solutions were internally focused - ie. not 
made for general consumption, which is why I gather that they were not 
published.

Since that company has recently decided to "go in a different direction", 
I'm no longer restricted from making such changes suitable for general 
consumption.  What are the guide lines for doing so?
