TinyOS is one of the projects I currently use, that still use CVS. Luckily I found a git mirror soon after I started using it, but the one I used is not up to date any more. I asked on the TinyOS-devel mailing list to create such a mirror on Sourceforge.net. I am not sure, whether this will happen soon, the first feedback was not very promising. But at least I was pointed to another git mirror, that is well hidden within a lot of irrelevant (for me) lines on the TinyOS wiki. Nevertheless, currently updated git repositories are as follows:

• git clone git://hinrg.cs.jhu.edu/git/tinyos-2.x.git (TinyOS 2.x gitweb)
• git clone git://hinrg.cs.jhu.edu/git/tinyos-2.x-contrib.git (TinyOS 2.x contrib gitweb)

Thanks to Alex and Claus, I can now play with an Arduino. My first attempt was to rebuild the Auduino synthesizer. It works, but it needs a lot more improvement. It seems that using a bread board creates some interference and two of the potentiometers I am using are 10.2kOhm instead of 4.7 kOhm. But on the other hand I did not spend an hour to build it and setup the Arduino software.The illumination is provided by Fnordlicht.
