At the moment, I know about 150 functions more in addition what
I docummented in TIGCCLIB, although I have not time to document
it, as I am not able to write enough fast in English, as it is
not my native language (I am not good in English). Of course, I
am not able to discover meaning of ALL TIOS functions (maybe I
would be able if I didn't have any other job at all), but I am 
surely able to discover about 70-80% of them. Problems with
is_symmetric are caused mainly with mis-interpretation of the
word "symmetric" which in my language have different mathematical
meaning.

By the way, my enthusiasam for searching is lower than before, 
because I don't want to reinvent the wheel, as I know that SDK
will be available soon. And I am really bored about documenting
the function which will be removed in the next release of AMS!

Does it mean that reproducing their info will be legal after they
releases the material publically? I don't think so.

This will probably be the scenario. And I think that releasing
TIGCCLIB 2.2 will not be illegal even after accepting the offer,
because I don't plan to release any new informations in it: I
only plan to introduce some bugfixes, and some improvements not
related to TIOS, like directives for making interrupt handlers,
as in following example:

handler(AutoInt1_handler)
{
  // The code
}

Would it still be actual?

For what? SDK testing? I am interested.
