Hi Damián,

welcome to RIOT (and sorry for the late reply...).

If you are still interested, the next step for you would be to prepare a
short application [1][2]. The main part of the application consists of
your proposed (high-level) project plan. Maybe have also a look at our
last dev-meeting minutes [3] for some more information.

Furthermore we would like to see some first involvement with RIOT by
contributing a (simple) pull request to RIOT. The purpose of this is to
get you an idea of how the community works and what RIOT development is
about. Have a look at our development procedures [4] and contributing
guidelines [5]. The easiest way to get involved is by looking at issues
marked as 'Newbie-Task-Candidate' and to fix one (or more) of them.

Let us know if you have more specific questions!

Cheers,
Hauke

Hello,

My name is Damian Martinez and I'm from Spain. I'm interested in apply
for this project because I have good knowledge about Python, C and
embedded systems and I'm interested in IoT too. I am studying IT
Engineering and I made some projects related with this kind of things,
for instance an inclinometer for hospital beds' using an Arduino Uno,
a Raspberry Pi and XBee modules for communication, or a DTMF
encoder/decoder using a Raspberry Pi. For these projects I always use
Python and C and I used a lot of sensors like accelerometer or RTC.

Finally I want to say that I know nothing about RIOT OS but now I want
to learn more about it working on this project or by my own.

Re: [riot-devel] Help need

Hi and welcome to RIOT!

To get started I would recommend looking around in the RIOT wiki [1] for
starters. Especially the wiki pages on development procedures [2] and
contribution guidelines [3] might be most interesting. As next step we
encourage everyone to start out with small pull requests to get familiar
with the RIOT code base and processes. A good starting point is to look
at issues labeled with 'Newbie-task-candidate' [4] and try to fix them.
Also looking around for missing/broken doxygen headers is a good one to
get started.

Let us know where we can help you further!

Re: [riot-devel] GSOC-2015 Application

Hi Shrenik,

welcome to the RIOT community!

The best way to get started with RIOT is to cruise around our wiki pages
[1]. Here you find information on how to contribute [2] and our general
development procedures [3]. The best way to start contributing is to
look at the list of open issues in RIOT and pick one (or more) that you
can fix and pull request. Some issues which we think are pretty straight
forward are marked as 'Newbie-Task-Candidate' [4], these might be a good
choice to get started. Alternatively it is always a good idea, to browse
through the code and look for missing/broken documentation...

Let us know where we can help you further!

Re: [riot-devel] Need help about RIOT radio communicate example

Hi Chen!

 I connect 2 telosb to 2 USB port and used 2 terminal to make term to each
 telosb board.

I guess you're using the default example, right?

 Then I use one board to txtsnd to other board address. But there is no
 reaction from the other board. (For native mode, the other should show
 received packets).

Do you have the possibility to use a sniffer somehow? This could be helpful to
check if it is a sender or a receiver problem. You could also try to use make
debug or set ENABLE_DEBUG to 1 in drivers/cc2420/cc2420_rx.c (cc2420_tx.c
respectively), to figure out what fails. The last time I checked the driver
was working, but I cannot verify right now, because I don't have any
cc2420-based hardware here.

Thomas, Kévin, could one of you verify the problem?

 I also use the .elf file in cooja simulation tool, there is no reaction for
 receiving node also.
 And I think the #1442 bug is not a matter about shell(explanation from 2014
 dec version), I think it's a cc2420 driver related bug.

Have you tried without setting the channel and PAN?

Cheers,
Oleg

Re: [riot-devel] board-specific development

Hi Ralph!

 I don't think I see redbee-econotag listed as a supported board on the wiki
 home page.  Is it no longer actively supported?

I think the support for the econotag in RIOT has always been rather poor. I'm
not aware that support for it was dropped officially, but considering the
state of its port I wouldn't be opposed to it (unless someone with some
knowledge of this board is willing to put a little effort in fixing it).

 Is anyone working a radio driver for the cc2538dk board, with a CC2538EM SoC 
 module?

I guess you are aware of this PR: https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT/pull/2198

(Unfortunately, I cannot say anything about its current state.)

Cheers,
Oleg

[riot-devel] ESP8266 - Easy tcp/ip support

2015-03-16 Thread David Lyon


Hello Ludwig,

Lately, I've been putting a lot of time into the ESP8266 wifi modules, 
and learning how to get them to work.


How is the unified network driver system going?

Here's my conclusion on the ESP8266. If Riot has a unified network 
driver system, it might be worth looking at trying to integrate these 
modules with riot.


The trick with the ESP8266 modules seems to be to use the LUA firmware. 
And use some simple serial bridging code from Riot to then talk to the 
modules.


Let me know if this is an interesting option?

Regards

David

Hi Prudhvee,

What kind of help do you need?

The specifications of both technologies are open, so you can get familiar with

The RIOT sources are open and documented as well.
The wiki and issue tracker contain information about current work on the 
network stack (look out for network stack task force).

Hi,
  My name is Prudhvee Narasimha. I'm an undergraduate student

   My interest lies in OS and Networking Concepts and their
programming in UNIX environment. I have gone through the ideas page of
RIOT. The projects Project N2: Implementation of LwM2M and Project
N1: Support for Bluetooth Low Energy aka Bluetooth Smart.

Project N1: Support for Bluetooth Low Energy aka Bluetooth Smart

 I'm a learning at work type student. Right now, I am a
novice programmer for application level programming. But, I promise to
work dedicatedly towards my project with my best. Regarding, Bluetooth
Low Energy, I had gone through the web about this and learned
somethings about it and I'm interested in working to reduce the power
consumption using Bluetooth Smart.

Project N2: Implementation of LwM2M

   I had gone through web about LwM2M, it is Light Weight
Member 2 member protocol.  liblwm2m is an implementation of the Open
Mobile Alliance's LightWeight M2Mprotocol (LWM2M). We can base our
work on this or we can code from scratch depending on the seniors
decision on optimization or ease.

 I'm willing to work in either of the projects but priorly, Project N2.

 I will be very much thankful and grateful if you would
provide me with the necessary resources and information on
contributing to these projects.


 As of my experience to RIOT, I'm a novice. I installed RIOT
in my UBUNTU 14.04. Completed my first newbie project  and hacking the

Re: [riot-devel] [GSoC 2015] Question about project idea


Hi Dimitrii,

welcome to RIOT! I think generally support for HTTP/2 is something that 
could be very interesting to RIOT. Although I think that HTTP/2 is 
probably only an option for the upper scale of devices in terms of 
memory and processing power, there might be quite some use cases where 
support might come in handy.


Implementing HTTP/2 as project during GSOC there might be one practical 
problem though. We are at the moment heavily restructuring the RIOT 
network stack. Although the first parts are almost ready, I can't quite 
tell when we will actually have a stable TCP implementation again, which 
could be a major risk to this project.


But I think it makes definitely sense to spend some more thoughts on 
this. I would recommend that you share your first thoughts on a general 
architecture as well as a rough time plan for the implementation with 
the community, so we can evaluate the feasibility of the project.


So I think this would be a great project, we just need to be very 
cautious if it is doable (especially as this depends on external 
factors...).


Let us know where we can help!

Cheers,
Hauke

I think just reading through the Wiki [1] and the mailing list archives [2]
will already help to get a rough understanding of how the community works.
Particular [3] might be interesting to read.

 Some questions: When are next virtual meeting, or call (18/03) ? the next
 Hack'n'ACK (26/03)?

Usually both, next call and Hack'n'ACK would happen next week (see also the
calendar on the web page). For the call, we might provide an additional
session this week for GSOC applications. We'll let you know ASAP. For the HA:
Martine, can you confirm that C-Base is reserved again?

 Who is the potential mentor for N1 BLE project (or the dev that best known
 RIOT network implementation) ?

Probably Hauke and Martine know best of the new network stack and will most
likely mentor this project.

 In my point of view, implementing complete BLE stack is a huge work for 4
 month project. What do you think about that ? Which is the priority
  (central, peripheral roles) ? For you, what's better for the community :

In general: a solid, well documented and easily extendible implementation is
usually better.
