RTEMS-mvme5500 BSP available

[Feng, Shuchen]

Hi all, 


Finally, we got official approval from DOE to release the
RTEMS-mvme5500 BSP under EPICS open source.  Before the BSP
is officially merged to the RTEMS release,  the source code
can be downloaded from :

As per discussion off-line regarding the license,  Joel had
accepted the EPICS license consdering the fact that it is
compatible with the RTEMS one. Many thanks to Joel's
consideration.

I think it is ready.  Presently, there is no known bug
based on our application.  I think I even fixed the URL
wrapped  problem from the original message below.
Looking forwards to feedback.
