It is partially in C and partially in Assembly. I would like to share it but
it is quite messy right now, code requires a good cleanup. Unfortunately I
don't have time right now, I'm extremely busy with bringing up prototype
boards that just came in... We're very short in time so I have to get them
up and running asap and give out a list of required changes and fixes for
the final prototypes and then go into production...
So I will do it later, when that pressure is somehow lessened...
Another thing is I don't know where it belongs. Just posting it to the list
will do little good, it must go into some repository or a product. I think
it would be OK to add various bootloaders to the U-Boot tree so people would
have all the means for bringing up their hardware from totally virgin state
but that requires cooperation, willinness to add yet another tree to the
U-Boot and decision on where it should go...

It is not just old, it is crappy and non-working :) And their I2C stuff is
absolutely bogus...
