"Having a complete package is a good thing." This is true. But the world is not static. There is 16-bit PWM now. There is 8-bit DAC. There is floating-point math. Neither of which is supportet by jallib, IMO.
Advertising by posting projects in the web is a way, and an easy one. It is one, however, which many people go. I'd like to repeat the proposal I've made before: Soon is the time to apply for a gratis open-source-project booth at http://www.linuxtag.org/2014/en/ . If someone is going to help a little in any way, I'm prepared to put quite some effort in such a project. I'm familiar with trade fairs and I can reach the location by subway. I even have some hundred old PCBs as giveaways, which can be used for MAX232 level converters. I can laser-cut the jallib URL onto those PCBs. I have touch sensors and a LED-tile with 40 RGB-LEDs as exhibits. Is anyone even a little interested? ________________________________ Von: mattschinkel <[email protected]> An: [email protected] Gesendet: 2:19 Mittwoch, 19.Februar 2014 Betreff: [jallib] Re: jallib team Hi Rob, The team has done a great job with the package we have created. It seems that Jallib is mostly complete, which causes less commits. Having a complete package is a good thing. I and others just don't have time lately, although I do plan to get back into it and write more tutorials and put more work into bits of my current libs. When I was writing the tutorials and posting about them on Jallist and elsewhere, it was good advertising. This seemed to produce new interest. You are a huge contributor at the moment. We all greatly appreciate the work you put into the device files. I'm not sure how to word this, but if you look at the amount of work you are putting in, and compare it to the number of other committers/users, it seems like you are doing too much for the "worth" of the additional device files. I think the answer is no, but is there any way to automate your device file creation? It may be more efficient to put your work in elsewhere. You could also choose to only update device files once per year, or whenever there is a need to do so do too a request. I don't think people use these new device files much. I think we need to think up new projects and idea's, and you could assist better here. Maybe start a large project as a group and try to build something crazy that can get attention. Some examples of things that could help, please add. 1. Help Kyle with the compiler to get new devices to work with it to get interest in the language. 2. Help Kyle with the compiler to make Jalv2 a cool scripting language for linux/windows. will need a new set of libs, and therefore more commits. 3. Work on whatever lib needs the most work. I'd say that would be the GLCD libs. Do a complete rewrite? 4. Start a project.. Send Jallib to space? Start an AI project? Build a robot? 5. Publish a book Matt. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jallib" group.
