Thanks to the efforts of a number of people, there is a raft of new
documents up at the legOS site. Because of the growing amount of
documentation, I've organized a new page to keep track of all the
available docs:

http://legOS.sourceforge.net/docs/

New things up there now:

*LegOS Networking Protocol documentation. The HOWTO now incorporates Mike
Ash's excellent LNP docs. This includes sample code, which should help
make LNP more workable for the many people who have asked about the LNP.
IMHO, this is the most important documentation to be written for legOS
since I wrote the original HOWTO.

*Command Reference: Dave Chen has written up a great new set of "human
generated" API docs, showing all the available kernel functionality that
legOS programs can access. Unlike the auto-generated API docs that we've
been depending on, this is sorted and organized by a human hand- making
them vastly superior.

*New HOWTO. Other than the LNP changes, these are mainly minor.
Unfortunately, the auto-generated table of contents seems to be failing
me- I'm working on it and hope to have it fixed by tomorrow.

In addition, a new Lego+Linux mini-HOWTO should be available tomorrow or
the day after that from linuxdoc.org.

Finally, I hope to release legOS 0.2.5 shortly, which will include a slew
of new functionality- most importantly, great support for C++. While this
is not yet documented, it should fill one of the big holes in legOS's
functionality.

Good luck and happy computing!
Luis
