Jimini Board support announcement

Hello All,

I’m happy to announce the support of a new board develop at the IAS of the RWTH Aachen. The initial PR is ongoing, it will be followed by driver and module PRs soon. Have a closer look at the wiki page to get an overview and insight of our development state.

A quick status: we have a working link to an RPI3 which has a Atmel transceiver board from Openlabs connected. It works as boarder router running radvd. As we are facing the problem of global IP drop as described in issue #5790 we decided to start pushing what we got, to also avoid parallel implementation.

While I was at it I did some changes to the wiki which a want to announce as it is proposed in the howto’s.

  • The addition of support for the Jimini board. Wiki page is added, PR is ongoing .
