Re: Sample project/resources for GCC/Linux

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I can't seem to start a new thread myself (I'm a new user, presumably this forum has some probationary limits).
I would very much like to see open-source support for Nuvoton MCUs, because they have some interesting (to me) features like providing the AVref pin even in low-pin-count MCUs. I personally don't believe that IAR and Keil provide enough value over the open-source tools to justify their high prices, and so I will never buy them and I tend not to use MCUs which require them to be used.
The number one request I would make, is for Nuvoton to publish the Nu-Link USB protocol. With that, the open-source community (people like me!) can add first-rate support to the openocd programming/debugging solution. This is used in many ARM development tooling solutions (based on eclipse, Qt Creator, Code::Blocks and other IDEs). Personally I'd also like to see better support for Nuvoton in Rowley Crossworks for ARM, which I've bought (they have a $200 not-for-profit license).
Most other developer tooling like initialisation code, special function register header files, sample projects etc can be pretty simply ported from the Keil/IAR versions.
So, could you please consider publishing the Nu-Link USB protocol? If it's already available, could you please give me a link to it and accept my apologies for not managing to find it myself!
Thanks.
