[Openec] Welcome!

[James Cameron]

What I've done so far ...

1.  reviewed an A-Test PCB to identify parts, and read the data sheets
for the KB3700 chip being used on the B2 and B4,

2.  briefly tested SDCC's assembler and simulator to verify that it can
be used at least to produce emulated serial port output,

3.  briefly tested SDCC's compiler, looking at the assembly output,

4.  code-reviewed Camel Forth for 8051, mapping the functionality that
it provides,

5.  code-reviewed Mitch's rewrite of Camel Forth into OpenFirmware
metacompiler semantics, providing feedback to Mitch,

Mitch's most recent post to devel@ summarises the status of that effort
well.

What I've got to play with ...

1.  two A-Test PCBs,

2.  three B1 systems,

3.  three B2 systems,

4.  two B4 systems (due within the week),

5.  an SPI reflashing serial dongle.
