As discussed during the VMA 2021.08, we are opening up a category to announce intention for endeavours in RIOT.
-
Why should people use this category? What is it for?
- This will help unify efforts early on (ie. before a PR) for big concepts such as replacing build systems, reworking periph_timer, etc. By announcing it here first, others may be able to help or at least point into the direction of work already started.
-
How exactly is this different than the other categories we already have?
- This more of a general information directory rather than having a specific area to focus.
-
What should topics in this category generally contain?
- “I wanted to get core working running only rust, any ideas”
- “I started with abstraction layer X API but didn’t finish it, anyone interested in using the collected informations?”
-
Do we need this category? Can we merge with another category, or subcategory?
- This is a more generic version of the unsupported boards
