Hi All, jumping on the topic of "the future of OpenOCD", one thing I'd like the core group to consider is the license.
Maybe this is not obvious to everyone but the code, being GPL, precludes some usages. I'm not a lawyer but I can't release internal developed code for new silicon to any external customer (i.e. not in my company), because an NDAs can't "override" GPL licensing. Something like a BSD license would work great in this kind of scenario, otherwise whatever external customer needs to wait for the debugging capabilities to be publicly disclosed before we can ship any OpenOCD. I know this has additional implications and not sure if a change/extension of the license is really a possibility for OpenOCD as it is, but it's worth considering. Regards, Ivan PS we will start shortly testing 0.9.0-rc1 on our side, specifically on Quark, will send the results by the end of this week -----Original Message----- From: Ellis, Duane [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, May 01, 2015 12:57 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [OpenOCD-devel] RoadMap Part 2 I want to follow up on yesterdays' round of emails about roadmap The question was: What is the roadmap I want to make sure I captured it correctly Paul's response was: No roadmap - we try to integrate what people submit And we try hard to not break things Sounds to me like "maintained mode" - no real development Peter & Felipe - commenting on my list of changes Boils down to "create a fork and clean it up" And they too have been thinking that David & Andres Interested in Aarch64 (something I'm interested in) It seems: Just good steward ship - people are keeping the boat moving along looking out for and fixing problems.
