Hi, as discussed on the virtual meeting we aim to have the new network stack running with the next release (end of November or before christmas). Currently, I'm the only one directly involved into the development (appart from several radio driver implementations), and while parts of the model come from me, Hauke is currently refining it. As for development it is clear, that I can't be the only one working on it.
I'm currently in the testing stage of 6LoWPAN but it is mostly done, but I still need some kind of way to communicate with the transceiver module for older boards (alternative would be to remove it, but for this we need #1772 and #1733 merged and all boards moved to the low-level driver model). I hope I have this done at the end of next week. All in all it's still a long way to the transport layer and to speed things up, I thought some of you guys may want to help me. I tried to split down the tasks at hand and assigned preliminary some people who might be able to do it. If you do not want/can not do this task, please notify this. Also if you want to take over a task do tell so too, please. Every assignment with a question mark is not fixed yet. * Model (Martine? and Hauke) * 6LoWPAN - backwards compatibility with transceiver module (Martine) - bug-hunting (Martine) - ND according to https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6775 (Martine?, depends on a running ND for IPv6) - optional: Next header compression (Oleg?) * IPv6 - port to netapi and pktbuf and remove 6LoWPAN dependency (Martine?) - consistent and extendable IPv6 Extension Header API (Martine?) - consistent and extendable ICMPv6 API (Lotte?) - Neighbor discovery according to http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4861 (Martine?, depends maybe on ICMPv6 API, but can be done without it, I guess) * Transport layer - port to netapi and pktbuf (Cenk?) * optional tasks for full deprecation of `transceiver`: - port OpenWSN (would this also include an IEEE 802.15.4e MAC layer?) and CCNlite to netapi or netdev - port boards that use cc110x to periph API or port cc110x_legacy and cc110x_legacy_csma to netdev - either removal or port to netdev of redbee-econotag
