Arduino 0020 for Windows and Mac OS X is now available from the download page [ http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Software ]. It features support for the new Uno and Mega 2560 boards and a new logo designed by ToDo [ http://www.todo.to.it/ ]. The Linux version will follow shortly.

A lot of people helped make this possible, including:

Dean Camera of LUFA [ http://www.fourwalledcubicle.com/LUFA.php ], the lightweight USB framework for AVRs that forms the basis of the USB-serial firmware on the ATmega8U2 on the Uno and Mega 2560
Zach Eveland [ http://www.zeveland.net/ ] who got the 8U2 firmwares working and tested
Peter Knight of optiboot [ http://code.google.com/p/optiboot/ ], the bootloader we’re using on the Uno, saving 1.5 KB of flash memory for your sketches
Mark Sproul [ http://coewww.rutgers.edu/~msproul/ ] who tested and debugged the ATmega2560 support (including the new stk500v2 bootloader)
Hans-Cristoph Steiner [ http://at.or.at/hans/blog/ ] who developed Firmata [ http://firmata.org/ ], the default firmware on the Arduino Uno and Mega 2560, and Paul J Stoffregen [ http://www.pjrc.com/ ] who ported it to the Mega

Thanks to everyone for their help!

On a technical note, the source code for Arduino [ http://github.com/arduino/Arduino ] has migrated to GitHub to facilitate distributed development and merging. It includes the source code for the 8U2 firmwares [ http://github.com/arduino/Arduino/tree/master/hardware/arduino/firmwares/ ] that we’re using for USB-serial conversion. The issues list [ http://code.google.com/p/arduino/issues/list ] and developers documentation [ http://code.google.com/p/arduino/w/list ] will remain on the Google Code Arduino project [ http://code.google.com/p/arduino/ ] for the foreseeable future.
