Please don't forget to submit documentation patches.
I just added a preamble to the patch tracker submission form explaining some details about our documentation.
Thanks for your contribution!

Where can I find the preamble in the patch tracker?
Should I submit a patch containing further program internal documentation?
Will the patch afterwards be applied to the avrdude source with the result that the next release will support AT89S52/51 MCU programming? (I did write "MPUs" in the subject field by mistake)
Thanks for your help!

Just try submitting a new patch, and you'll see it. (Don't complete the procedure, just start it, pretending you were submitting something new.)

There is no document for internal stuff, so your patch should include respective comments.
Will the patch afterwards be applied to the avrdude source
I generally don't make promises about what is going to be included in the next release (because I have to find the respective spare-time), but if everything fits and is documented, chances are good.

Superseded by patch #7703.

The AT89S52/AT89S51 are Intel MSP-51 (8051) compatible microcontrollers manufactured by Atmel that can be programmed in-system using an SPI interface very similar to the AVR microcontrollers.
The popular AVR ISP mkII programmer and the STK500 officially support those chips, so here is the patch to make them work with avrdude.
There is also demand for this feature: http://www.mikrocontroller.net/topic/83347
The patch was tested with AVR ISP mkII.
file #23339: avrdude-at89s.patch
