+    <li> <b>11 July 2002, Native uClibc toolchains updated</b>
+    <br>
+    CodePoet Consulting (i.e. Erik) has released updated native
+    uClibc/gcc-3.1 and uClibc/gcc-2.95 toolchains.  These toolchains
+    build real gcc cross compilers (i.e. not just a wrapper) and create
+    executables linked vs uClibc.  These toolchains have been tested
+    and found working on x86, arm, and mmu-less arm.  They should work
+    (at least in theory!) for all architectures supported by uClibc.
+    <p>
+
+    These toolchains should make it easy to anyone to build uClibc based 
+    applications.  <a href="downloads/toolchain/">Source code can be downloaded here</a>. 
+    Be aware that much of the needed source code will actually be downloaded on
+    demand when you compile things.  To build the toolchain, simply
+    grab the source, edit the Makefile to select where you would like
+    the toolchain installed, run 'make', and then go watch TV, eat
+    dinner, or visit with your friends while it compiles.  It takes
+    about 15 minutes for Erik to compile the gcc-3.1 toolchain (w/C++ support)
+    on his Athlon XP 1600 (not counting the time it takes to download
+    source code).  Your results may vary...
+    <p>
