FW: [Tinyos Core WG] Meeting: 9/12

[David Moss]

Here's what I've been up to...

CC1100/CC2500 DRIVERS:
  * Actively being developed, dubbed "Blaze" to keep the name short,
encompassing all compatible radios.
  * Project repository is being kept in tinyos-2.x-contrib/blaze, with
corresponding unit tests in tinyos-2.x-contrib/tunit/tests/...
  * Receive, Transmit, and Control branches are operational
  * Will finish and validate software acknowledgements and CSMA by the end
of the week.
  * Targeting both ActiveMessage and SP interfaces

UNIT TESTING:
  * TUnit is operational, with some quirks to our setup right now.  We've
been in a perpetual state of transition, lab space wise, for a few weeks now
which has prevented us from nailing down a few issues.
  * Not ready to announce TUnit until it's 100% ready.  I know of 2-3 bugs
that I haven't had time to fix.
  * I wasn't able to get TUnit to run reliably for an extended period of
time on fedora core 5.  This was not a TUnit problem, this was a serial/USB
driver problem.  If you were to do development on FC5 you probably wouldn't
notice it, but when you try to continually load and interact with the
serial/USB ports on FC5 it eventually fails (even bsl).  So, we're running
TUnit on some Windows XP boxes and it's a lot more reliable.
