That looks like a great board to get running! Justin,
I'd love your thoughts on something, as it seems like you've played with Arduino a bunch. Is it the hardware platform, or the wiring interface that you see most appealing? I've gone back and forth with this in my head more times than is likely sane. One the one hand, I really admire the fact that Arduino has created a simple interface that has let a ton of hobbyists develop prototypes. Wiring seems to me to be well adopted, and that's usually a sign that its practical and sane. On the other hand, if I had the expertise to use a RTOS for programming, I'm not sure I would need to wiring interface vs a straight C implementation. As I'm sure you're aware, the wiring interfaces are somewhat limited for more complex functions that you might want to perform (i.e. responding quickly to a change in state on multiple GPIO.) Do you think that providing a matching interface (or a port of wiring to our RTOS) will likely bring a lot of people in? Or is having the equivalent as a C implemented HAL that's a bit more advanced sufficient? Sterling PS: No judgement here on Wiring's interface - I'm genuinely curious: I spent a lot of time on PHP. Purists told us for years what was wrong about our language, all while we grew to power the majority of the web cause it turned out great engineers aren't always the ones with ideas for great websites.
