30C3

We're getting together at the annual CCC conference, 30C3, for a sigrok hackathon. In addition to the usual "whatever we feel like hacking on", we also have several architectural decision to make, and doing this in person is a lot easier. If you want to be part of the conversation and decision-making process, show up!

In addition to the 4 days of the congress, we will also get together the day before (26 December 2013) for a hopefully less crowded and more productive day. Venue is not yet decided.

What's decided here is what goes.

• New sigrok file format
• Improved Configuration Enumeration
• To sr_filter_probes() or not, that is the question.
  • frontends have probe location info, they pass it to sr_filter_probes() after all
  • very nice for output modules: avoids having to map probe location to bit on all the modules
  • waste of time for PV, which will soon do its own reformatting of logic data anyway
  • SRD currently needs it, but has a probe mapping mechanism already, so can be adapted
• Rethinking how we enumerate and assign drivers to hardware
  • Device tree model
