Hi Ryan,

That's a great idea. I too learn best from examples.

I'll add this to the list.

Thanks,
Michael

I'd like to see a package of simply, fully working, high-quality example applications, including tutorials on cross-compiling and linking against different versions of the various OpenMoko libraries. It would provide an excellent starting point for developers such as myself who want to dive in but usually get bogged down in code that is written to do work, not to look pretty and demonstrate the principals of how the system is put together.

Documentation is great, but if it's dense it will only benefit the more hardcore hackers. I hope to eventually become one of those more hardcore hackers, but I feel like I need an entry point. :-)

    Hello everyone,

    I have some updates for you, and a question.

    First the updates:

    The GTA01 units that were shipped in the past two weeks have satisfied
    the back orders for GTA01. There continues to be demand for GTA01 so we
    are building some more.

    GTA02 Wifi hardware has been working for about a week, so work can
    proceed on the driver, which is currently in a pretty minimal state.

    We're very happy with the u-blox/Atmel ATR0635 GPS Receiver, and thus
    have made the decision to use this chip.

    GTA02v3, the third revision of GTA02, is still being verified and
    tested. This will take another couple of weeks, at which point we'll
    make GTA02v4.

    Now the question:

    We want to make it easier for developers to work with OpenMoko. We
    realize that many of our resources (e.g. wiki, website, development
    tools) are decidedly not user friendly at the moment and that other
    resources ( e.g. documentation) are missing. I'm going to start
    putting a
    lot more energy into this, and I'd like to hear your thoughts in general
    and in particular what should be tackled first. You may reply either to
    the list or to me personally, as you wish.

    Sincerely,
    Michael
