Hi Phil,

Not yet. I just make sure that I *could* port it to eCos quickly, as soon
as my company allows me the time to do it. I've done a port to SMSQ/E, but
still have bugs there, maybe due to my assembler hacks.

I'm using a custom Hitachi SH3 board for eCos, and can install enough
memory to run the eCos network stack. Still I could use a less RAM-hungry
implemetation. Additionally I experience problems with the eCos network
buffer management under heavy traffic. Two good reasons to watch lwIP :-)
