Hello all, I am building mesh networking sensor arrays for agriculture, and I am working on RIOT as an operating system for them. I have a number of bits of hardware that I need to write support for and I would like to contribute that back to RIOT. However, since this is ag equipment designed to be deployed in large quantities, I expect that it will not really be available for developers other than myself to test on.
What is the RIOT community's policy on submitting support for things like CPUs and peripherals without a board implementing them? I intend to support what I contribute into the foreseeable future. I suspect that having hardware already supported will influence future board designs if they are intended to run a system like RIOT (it influenced some of my design choices). Some of the specific bits I intend to add are the ATmega1284P MCU, the TCA9539 I2C GPI expander, and the ADS1015 ADC (and variants).
