I usually end up discussing avarice on avrdude-dev, which may not be the 
canonical place, but it seems like the right place to get information on 
avarice is where ever Joerg can be found :)

Sorry to say I don't use Eclipse -- although I've been thinking I should 
try it :)  I use avr-gcc + avarice + gdb on Linux, but the old-fashioned 
command line way.

Not being familiar with Eclipse, this is going to be a dumb question... 
but since avarice looks like any other gdb server isn't the hookup 
relatively straight forward? (He says as he waits for the dull thud of 
the clue stick.)
