Dear All,

Today, 10th December 2009, marks the launch of the XCore Exchange (www.xcore.com).

XMOS is all about putting great technology into the hands of creative people.

Wow, it is December already - it is amazing how fast time goes! Anyhow, I would just like to announce that something new is going to be launched this Thursday!

So, to give you a heads up, XMOSLinkers will be down from 10AM GMT, on 10th December 2009, upon which something new and beautiful shall emerge, all things going well by 5pm GMT.

Watch this space and put a note in your diaries, let's get everyone on-line for some friendly chat and Christmas fun!

We would just like to announce the availability of a new book from XMOS. The quote from the XMOS site is:

"This book is an indispensable practical guide for embedded engineers, and for educators of concurrent programming and the XMOS architecture. It provides a single standalone reference that blends techniques from both hardware and software design, and shows how XMOS technology is being used to program the world’s electronics.

As you may/may not have been aware, we swapped servers today, so thank you for your patience if you got our "site is down for maintenance" message.

Anyhow, the transfer is now complete, and all seems great. However, if you do notice anything odd, please feel free to let me know.
