Hi Ludwig, Nhat, Thanks a lot for your answers! It is much clearer now. We will estimate how difficult it would be to adopt RIOT to our use case. It is very attractive that RIOT is modular, supports C++ and aims to POSIX compatibility. I just wanted to thank you all again. Regards, Alex

Dear RIOT team, Thanks for RIOT I personally think it is GREAT! We are considering using RIOT on our ARM v8 64bit multicore (SMP) hardware. The platform requires 64bit memory addressing (DDR is at higher than 32bit address range). We would appreciate if you could help us understand if using

Hi Kaspar, Yeah this is very interesting project!:) It is custom board with multi core ARMv8 (64bit) CPU (SMP system). We need some simple, very minimalistic OS we could use for hardware testing and bring up. Main use case would be sequential HW testing (e.g. registers read/write, interrupts
