Arduino updates

The well-known prototyping platform was updated some days ago. This new build of Arduino (number 0023) features some changes. The more important ones are:

• Addition of .inf files for R3 boards.
• Update to optiboot 4.4.
• Inclusion of combined firmwares for ATmega16U2.

Although these seem minor updates, this new release of Arduino code is targeted to eradicate some of the bugs present in older releases. It would not be a surprise if this new build has gained in stability and usability.

The code for this version is hosted and available on Google Code

Site announcements

We have clearly seen that a great number of people visits our blog from Spain. As a result, we decided to focus more on language-specific blogs.

Our idea is to publish the same content in three different languages: English, Spanish and French.

The English-targeted blog is the one you are in. This is the Spanish one and this is the French one.

Thanks for reading!
