Release soon, release often! I think it's one of the best idea for 
open source project. 
Today i think most of people are waiting for release of or1k to see if 
it's a real project (as we say in France "Il faut amorcer la pompe", 
try babelfish on it) Code for or1k even buggy is better than an 
announce.

Of course this is just another "you should do it" and reality is 
different and this is why i didn't released I2C code...
