<p class="MsoPlainText">I’m developing software that uses RTEMS on an Aeroflex Gaisler LEON3FT processor that is running on a Pender GR-CPCI-AX2000 development board. I am using version 4.10 of RTEMS and RCC 1.1.99.19.<o:p></o:p></p>

 process, it has been highlighted by ESA that there is a space qualified version of RTEMS available, though this is currently based on version 4.8 of the kernel. I believe this is being developed by the company Edisoft (http://rtemscentre.edisoft.pt).<b><o:p></o:p></b></p>
