I wanted to let everyone know where we are today.

The GCC C/C++ compiler and tool chain is stable.

The Standard C library is getting more detailed testing.

The Eclipse GUI environment is in progress.

The GDB debugger porting effort is in progress.
It is being ported for Propeller hardware and Dave Hein's spinsim.

We would like to enter Beta test phase by February.

Thanks for all your support.

    His team has done a great job, high quality, and in no time. And still missing the IDE, which will add ease of use.

    Thank you!

    Do you have a link to hardware requirements for new board layouts?

    We don't have a formal enumerated list of requirements, but a matrix of boards and schematics is here:

    The "HUB" type shows the minimum configuration. Hope this helps.

    Thanks.

    Hi, I'm sorry I missed your question until now. Please forgive me.

    Which particular requirements do you care about?

    All current Propeller boards can be used with Propeller GCC.
    Any external memory program boards are easily supported.

    Hi, we decided to push Beta start to the first week of March.
    My initial post estimate in this thread was a little "aggressive".

    Standard Library bugs have been found in the meanwhile.
    We will be posting another release soon.
