NXP Buys Code Red!

Started by Leon Heller April 30, 2013
I'm using Code Red for Cortex M0 development. It's not my day job, but more of a side business for me.

...and...

"Current Code Red customers using non-LPC platforms will continue to have
support through May 2014."

So, if you bought it for something other than an LPC platform, you're bang
out of luck and need to find an alternative if you're in active development.

I wonder what SiLabs will be doing with their Precision32 toolset which is
Code Red underneath?

Perhaps it's a non-issue. Nobody has indicated that they're using Red Suite
in a commercial capacity here.
