Sounds good to me, maybe I can get ya a board or two for testing :) We only use ECOS for redboot for the ARM9 btw. I would love to get a full port of ECOS to the ARM9, but I dont have the time to do it. That's why I am hoping that pushing the code into the public might get some folks into doing it themselves.
