Terrible, may be its time to create special project for MPC5200 (if it
doesn't exist in somewhere in I-net)? First intention - sourceforge.
Comments/suggestions?

Sylvain, Wolfgang I know you already have projects. But in case of
Sylvain, as I understand, his project on his homepage.
In case of Wolfgang, I'm not sure that DENX will happy to share their
internal CVS with all I-net for write access. Am I right?

And CAN, RTC, and possible CRC32/16 (if it will fast enough) :).
