Wayne, I agree with Dave regarding SVN. I haven't used either (with OpenServo I'm using CVS), but I think that SVN will be much more approachable to people...
... The arguments in favor of SVN are compelling; SVN it is. There are several options here -- I set up a SVN server, or use Dave's or use SourceForge or ......

Hi Wayne, I'm implementing a toggling between application code and the bootloader in my AVR based RoboBricks2 module. I'm running into some state issues in my...
... Me bad. It is undocummented. It is the "F" command for flush. It flushes any unread bytes out of the buffer. I will fix the documentation shortly. ... ...
