I have already responded to Rutger privately and am sure eCosCentric will respond in due course. In the meantime, I would like to remind everyone that the eCos maintainers operate independently of any commercial organisation they may be a affiliated to. They try to ensure the best possible outcome for the eCos project at two levels: a) Technical progress b) Health and growth of the user community Be assured that all contributions are evaluated on their own technical merits and that the views of the community will be taken into account.
