Re: [riot-devel] NSTF radio driver
Hi Joakim, as of today, I PRed a new version of the Xbee S1 radio driver[1], which is build 100% on the new netdev interface. I think it makes a good reference implementation for radio drivers, even if it is through it's UART interface a little different from others drivers we are supporting... So to my opinion, the netdev interface can be considere as stable (I expect only very minor changes). So if you want to go ahead implementing your new driver, now is a good time as any!

Re: [riot-devel] NSTF radio driver
Hi Joakim, sorry for the silence on this. The driver is almost ready I’ll open a PR for it by Thursday at latest. I was discussing with Hauke the initialisation process for the network stack and also initialisation in general. I saw these memory corruptions too, but didn’t manage to identify the source neither as I focused on the driver refactoring. Looking forward for your review and testing.
