Hi Stuart!

You might have to go back to an earlier version of Atmel Studio / AVR Studio to 
find an XML file for that part.

A lot of times, people find similar parts and change the items that you did 
above (id, desc, signature, etc.).

I would suggest trying to program a real part, and also post the new entry here 
(it didn't look like you posted in the original email), and we can review it.

@Joerg Wunsch: Can we please give priority to Stuart? ;-) Thanks!
