Hi Sunish,

I'm not so concerned about the popularity of Jal/Jallib!
My 'complaint' was about the lack of reponse on the latest release of Jallib. I'm concerned that this may be a reason for people to reduce their efforts for Jallib or even leave the Jallib team (including myself).

In Jallib there is a limited set of functions for fixed point arithmetic and string processing. What is missing exactly which would make you (and hopefully others!) to stick to Jal?

There should be compelling projects and samples.

These can only be provided by experienced users. Maybe these are the people who need Jallib the least for personal use and have not so much interst to contribute...

Providing blink an led for every supported PIC of jallib in the

I agree that 400 blink samples in a library of 1000 'real' samples may be too many. We could consider splitting the sample library in 'basic' and 'advanced' or even more (but not too many!) subdirs.

IMHO among the many reasons, one reason of less contributions
to projects of jallib is the restriction of not allowing

I am a supporter of CamelCase, but I don't remember the reason for the decision, probably a democratic majority. If this is really a reason not to contribute then we should reconsider this.

Thanks for your arguments.

Regards, Rob.
