Hi all, I didn't notice if it was already announced here, but the CFP for the FOSDEM Embedded dev room in 2014 is open:https://lists.fosdem.org/pipermail/fosdem/2013-October/001870.html It would be great to have some folks give OpenEmbedded/Yocto Project-related presentation(s) this year - we usually manage at least one for FOSDEM. It could be about a new feature you've worked on, a success story, a proposal for a new direction, a related project etc. Hi Paul, I'll be attending FOSDEM this year and could bring some kit along for a demo if there's interest, and table space available. I doubt I'll have time to prepare a presentation but would be happy to make some time for a discussion if anybody has questions on the development process we went through at DD. The project I think would be most relevant here is a wireless sensor mesh network that we've been working on for some time. This comprises a number of low cost sensor 802.15.4 radio nodes running a proprietary mesh stack. These are then deployed around a building, forming their own mesh for comms, and providing sensor information back into the enterprise. We are planning to use Yocto on an OEM i.MX6-based headless gateway we have under development to provide the interface between the mesh and the Internet for sense data, and also for installation / network monitoring purposes. As Yocto is so flexible in terms of platform targetting, whilst our i.MX6 hardware is in development I have been building for both both Freescale's i.MX6 EVK and also the Raspberry Pi for test engineers to do initial evaluation. So there's an Internet of Things aspect, 802.15.4 mesh networking, a couple of different hardware platforms running essentially the same code-base to accelerate development, and as the gateway application is .NET based running on Linux/Mono, it shows that companies with existing .NET code-bases and Windows development teams can leverage Yocto+Mono to target their embedded apps. at Linux platforms. Is that something that would be of interest? Regards, Alex Cheers, Paul --
