History
gpasm, the GNU PIC assembler, was originally developed by James Bowman and released as version 0.0.3 on July 13, 1998. Craig Franklin extended
gpasm into an entire suite of assembler- and linker-related tools and renamed the project to gputils, releasing gputils 0.0.4 on March 4, 2001. The project is currently maintained by David Barnett. GPUTILS was created by Craig Franklin and James Bowman. Currently, it is primarily supported by Molnár Károly. Until recently has been supported Borut Ražem. In the past it has been supported by David Barnett, Scott Dattalo and Marko Kohtala .
