It does some like a good idea; it would be handy to just do a package add
and have eCos support automatically. It would be nice to keep whatever
changes are necessary in the Microwindows CVS repository so that everything
can be kept in sync more easily. The solution could be to add a Microwindows
dist_ecos Makefile target which would copy the necessary existing sources
into a temporary eCos-compatible directory hierarchy along with an
appropriate config file and CDL file and generate an .epk package file from
that.

Hi,
I seem to remember that something of this nature was
mentioned by eCos team members -- it certainly makes sense to me, though of
course it will be some work to update to the latest versions of Nano-X.
I believe if you post this on ecos-discuss, you'll probably get some
positive feedback.
Thanks,
Julian
