4.8.0 Released

(February 14, 2008): Happy Saint Valentine’s Day!!! Today there were two RTEMS releases. The first of these is the long anticipated 4.8.0. 4.8.0 is the first release from the 4.8 release series and represents a long awaited step forward from the 4.8 releases. There have been many improvements to RTEMS itself including optional nanosecond timing granularity, smaller executables, a port to the Blackfin, and new POSIX services. The GNU/Linux RPMs have been updated and there are now MinGW hosted tools for MS-Windows users. On either hosts, users should be able to get started with RTEMS in a matter of minutes. For more details, see the 4.8.0 release information. Please note that if we forgot to include anyone’s work in the release information, it is an accident. Please email and we will add the information.
