<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">Hi Kanad,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We've been working on soft FPU support for LEON 3 and 4 and Sparc generally. It's not ready for the big-time yet, and not our focus this week, but we'll be trying to iron-out the problems and get that into the codebase soon.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you need, you can send me a personal email if you want to get involved or see if we can work together to build on what we already have.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Best Regards,</div>
<div>Chris Dewhurst, University of Limerick.</div>
