The AT firmware is not really fit for purpose for this task although 
it might on the surface seem that way. 

Much time and frustration would be saved implementing the same thing 
via the Lua firmware - nodemcu. For example, use LUA to do a real 'AT' 
interface as the AT firmware that comes on most boards is disappointing.


Also, there is a C SDK available for the ESP8266 and I was interpreting 
the conversation to mean that a RIOT interface would be utilising that. 
That would be a fairly involved project and I think the OS is based on 
RTOS or something so that may be less attractive.

David
