[Tinyos Core WG] 2.0.2 release plans

[Vlado Handziski]

Do we have any policy again mixing of platform-dependent and
platform-independent applications in the top /apps dir? This would be the
only platform specific app in the top dir apart from the TOSSIM apps. the
/apps/tests is currently a mixed bag.

On another note. One of the things I hated most in TinyOS 1.x were the
platform #ifdefs. We managed to keep the T2 code pretty clear  until now,
but with this app, with Deluge, the CC2420 tests, etc. they are creeping
back in. I know it is very convenient, but it makes life much harder for the
non-core platforms, forcing the maintainers to shadow and patch complete
components, etc. In almost all cases, it is much better to factor our the
platform dependent code in separate components, with clear interfaces
between them and the platform-independent logic.
