Re: GCC Port (gcc backend) for Microchip PICMicro microcontroller

[Colm O' Flaherty]

I'm not dependent on it, although at some point, I'm sure i may take a 
closer look at the code to see how they've done certain things.

Just as a reminder, even though the Microchip code is covered by the GPL, 
code based on it >>won't be acceptable for inclusion into FSF GCC unless 
you can get Microchip to sign a copyright >>assignment, which seems 
unlikely.

Would seem to be easy enough to do, just, one cannot count on it. People 
that want to start >from that code should open a dialogue now, before they 
start.
