Hi YAFFSers

I have just checked in the code for the YAFFS direct interface and a 
bootloader example. Dox for these are in /Documents in the yaffs cvs.

The YAFFS Direct Interface (YDI) is designed to be ported to lightweight 
RTOSs and such embedded systems where a full-grown OS like Linux is not 
available. Porting to your environment requires:
* Define a Lock and Unlock function.
* Define a current time function (for time stamping)
* Define NAND access functions.

NB: Using YDI does not free you from GPL obligations. Aleph One is working on 
figuring out a licensing strategy that will work for ROTS/lightweight folks.

Also, I have included a bootloader example.
