I forgot to put one, so I correct the past ;-)

Did you post something ? (If yes give me the title of your post and I will
do the update).

I currently scheduled to do :
	- Verify all the instruction set, that they didn't have any error like the 
rotl instruction.
	- Add the new load and store operation that whas asked by christophe
	- Update loadm/storem to be up to date with what we say on 
the mailing-list
	- Add the dnetc-rc5 F-CPU code sample
	- Find a way to add an index (if some one know howto to do that in latex)
	- Put all the different manual (english, french, german) in the same
package

If someone want to add something, only ask. When I finished to do that I will
use a cvs so that we can work more easily.

A+
