Developers looking for an open source, BSD-licensed operating system designed for low-power wireless devices
About TinyOS
TinyOS is an open source, BSD-licensed operating system designed for low-power wireless devices, such as those used in sensor networks, ubiquitous computing, personal area networks, smart buildings, and smart meters. A worldwide community from academia and industry use, develop, and support the operating system as well as its associated tools, averaging 35,000 downloads a year. The transition to hosting at GitHub is now complete. Part of this transition includes slowly retiring TinyOS development mailing lists for bug tracking and issues to using the GitHub trackers. Thanks to all of the developers who are now improving TinyOS and requesting pulls!

TinyCAD
TinyCAD is a an open source program for drawing circuit diagrams which runs under Windows. Do not pay for TinyCAD, it is free and always will be. There are no licensed sellers of TinyCAD. Creating libraries of circuit symbols in TinyCAD is easy, but time-consuming. If you have some symbols you feel might benefit other TinyCAD users, then why not upload the symbols to this site to allow other users to download them? The TinyCAD manual is included in the installer but can also be read on-line as part of the TinyCAD wiki. If you feel this manual could be updated in any way, then please go-ahead and edit the Wiki for the benefit of others. There are tutorials on the Github site on how to edit Wikis.
