Add description for wiringPi pinout

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,
this is not really a bug report but a feature request, not sure this is the 
right place where to ask for it.
I was wondering whether it would be possible to update the description of the 
gpio pins also with the numbering provided here for the wiringPi pinout:

https://projects.drogon.net/raspberry-pi/wiringpi/pins/

Maybe even just by adding them in parenthesis as follows:
GPIO 2 would become GPIO 2 (8)
GPIO 8 would become GPIO 8 (10)
And so on.

-- 
Thanks in advance,
Salvatore.

This seems to be the updated pinout for wiring pi: http://wiringpi.com/pins/

Pin numbering has always been a pain and source of confusion, I admit.
But adding an additional numbering schema will be another source of confusion.
I instead decided to stick to the BCM GPIO numbering since the beginning.

Ah okay, thanks for the clarification. I though that since webiopi needs and 
uses wiringpi to work, it would also use the same gpio naming.
At least I didn't fry any hardware because of that, although it made me wonder 
why it didn't work at first as I was expecting it would, eheh.

WebIOPi does not use WiringPi or anything else at all.
WebIOPi read/write directly to the SoC registers.
