hi Rob, before doing this Bob took some time to talk me through about half the skills i'd need to work the LP1 software. (being persuaded by Rick Walker) It's all Linux based, not something I'm familiar with. There's a matter of how to fix things if the Lp1 becomes unable to respond to updates due to programming error, something that Bob told me was practically inevitable. This requires a bit of hardware called a "Hackfin" (which I purchased) and the knowledge what to do with it ( no idea). So we're looking for individuals with 1) LP1 hardware 2) Linux skills 3) Hackfin device 4) Hackfin knowledge 5) Motivation 6) GitHub skills out of which I only have 1,3,5, and just about enough 2 to compile if I go back to my notes. Anyone else out there? andy ps, Bob really genuinely seems to not have the free time available, he's doing all he can. To be honest, I don't always have the spare time either, but I do get windows of opportunity. On 25/02/2014 06:31, Rob Campbell wrote:
9 months later... I was wondering if the LP-1 'community' would benefit from this decision. It doesn't seem like anybody is taking this and running with it. I can't even tell what version this is on Github. I poked through the source, but found no hints. Is this the long awaited but never released 1.40 ? any unlikely news on this topic is welcome, thanks Rob On 6/9/2013 12:15 AM, David Lamkins wrote:I was just doing my weekly check of the Looperlative board, only to find it no longer responding.
