A good first step might be to have a bit more transparency around how the DDR is generated every month and how people can contribute new devices. Currently the latest DDR released was Feb 2013. Also, there was talk about automating this whole process. This seems like a very concrete task. I could help out on writing some of this framework, I just need to understand more about the DDR generation process.
As for the APIs (Java, C#, etc), they should probably be updated on a bug/requirement cycle. For me, getting a regular updated DDR released in a timely manner seems to be priority #1. Once again, I know several people who want to help out, they just dont know where to start. ________________________________ From: Bertrand Delacretaz <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, March 26, 2013 12:02 PM Subject: Re: Device Recognition for Embedded On Tue, Mar 26, 2013 at 4:13 PM, Werner Keil <[email protected]> wrote: > ...we should look into the > Embedded sector, M2M and IoT, just as well... If anything has to happen here, people need to step up and *do something concrete*. Look at http://svnsearch.org/svnsearch/repos/ASF/search?path=%2Fincubator%2Fdevicemap - exactly two people have committed anything to the wurfl repository since its creation in early 2012, myself and joes who's an ASF infrastructure admin and did a small test commit. http://incubator.apache.org/devicemap/team.html lists a number of people who have commit rights to the devicemap repository already (if not please ask). Of course situations change and not all of them might still be willing and able to contribute here, but if no one steps up soon I'm afraid we'll just have to close shop. If anyone has interesting stuff to contribute but is not currently a committer, feel free to let us know so that we see what we can do. I don't mean to downplay the DMAP-11 contributions - that's very useful of course, but I'm not planning to do everything myself. -Bertrand
