Alpha release v0_2_2

We've uploaded a new (still alpha) version of propgcc. This is a relatively small upgrade. Notable new features are: (1) a bug fix for the C3 XMM driver so that it will work with SD cards inserted (you still can't hot plug SD cards, though), and (2) a linker change so that any section name starting or ending with ".cog" is treated as a cog code overlay. This latter feature makes linking cog C code with LMM C code much simpler. In previous releases we had fixed names (".coguser0", ".coguser1", and so on) for the cog code overlays; now you can use sensible names for the cog code overlays. See the updated toggle demo source code for examples.

Speaking of demos, we've the demos into their own archive (named propgcc-demos-XXX.zip) and also made an archive for the C library source code (propgcc-libsrc-XXX.zip) for those of you who like to look "under the hood" at what the library is doing.

As always, please let us know of any issues you find and ask us about anything that's confusing or needs more explanation.

Happy holidays everyone!
Eric

    The only thing that will have changed in the last day or so are some packaging scripts and a tag for the release, so you should be good to go. Have a great Christmas!
