I had started a project earlier and had called it LibAVR (or libavr). The point 
being that we have libc (the C library), libm (the math library), and this 
would be libavr, the AVR library. On the linker command line, it would be easy 
to spot with '-lavr'. Plus it has the distinction that the name is short.

See attached .zip file for existing code for the project.

Addressing Ron's earlier comment: I would rather not do a UART driver as the 
first device, mainly because there is actually a lot of code with that. I would 
vote for an SPI driver, mainly because it is simpler to implement. I, of 
course, also have an example of that in the libavr code attached.
