[Tinyos-help] Basestation - tinyos 2.0.1 vs 2.0.2

David,
  Could you answer another question about BaseStation for me?  It seems that 
the message is just passed to the serial module by just a reference to the 
received CC2420 packet with no modifications to the header (that I could 
find) to make the header compatible to the serial_header_t (and vice-versa). 
  Does this translation from one header format to the other happen in some 
code somewhere?  I've looked pretty intensely at all but the most basic HIL 
software, and by that time, I don't know how the software would know to even 
convert from one header to the other.  The same is essentially true for the 
meta-data.
    How does the software know how to correlate, for instance, the dest in 
one with the dest in the other?  It doesn't look like the way the header is 
recalled (by tying it to the start location of the data payload) that the 
compiler would be smart enough to do this translation automatically.
  This really has me confused, and any help in enlightening me would be 
greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Kurt

Yup.  BaseStationCC2420 is deprecated because the CC2420 stack has the
ability to enable/disable auto-acks and address recognition at compile time.
There's no longer a need to maintain two separate portions of the CC2420
stack.

Just checking, did BasestationCC2240 get removed from 2.0.1 when updating to

2.0.2?  I just installed 2.0.2 and that directory seemed to go away...
