I took a quick look at the three options and also conclude the best starting point is Sergey's tool. It is already in C and the code is GPL, so it should make the best starting point for future work.

3. Sergeys tool

See [1] as well.

I think we should agree on one to go on with, maybe merging features from the other. Target should be to have one open source DVFlasher/TI UBL replacement. I haven't looked yet into (2) and (3), but I think (1) is only really basic, so better candidates to go on with are (2) or (3). I personally like a C/assembly based solution more than one with C# ;)

I asked Kevin regarding a git repository for this. It should be possible to host it on [2] if we like.

Opinions?

Best regards

Dirk
