bring configurable_dev up to date with changes in dev branch

Sure. I can also start posting a zip of the latest stable configurable branch for non github users (there still seem to be a large number). |
|
you mean like this: https://github.com/firmata/arduino/archive/configurable.zip ? |
merge rotary-encoder and fixes from dev into Configurable.
|
it would be the output of the release.sh script. Unfortunately github removed their file hosting feature so I have to host builds on my personal server or on sourceforge. |
|
sure, output of release.sh is a bit nicer. But I allways point people to the zipped branch given above as it is, and usually people are fine with that ;-) |
|
Yeah the github archive works for most people but there are also a lot of non technical firmata users (art and design students, etc) who don't know the first thing about running shell scripts. According to SourceForge there are about 122 weekly downloads of the Firmata source code. I suspect a number of these downloads may be from bots but I could be wrong. Either way there are still a number of users who are not going to the github site at all. |
|
This has to be mostly bots: http://sourceforge.net/projects/firmata/files/stats/timeline?dates=2013-03-25+to+2014-03-31 |
|
that are surprisingly large numbers. But sure, go ahead and place a stable configurable on sourceforge as well. It can't be bots alone ;-) |
From my understanding configurable_dev is pretty stabilized (at least with perl-firmata the encoder-feature works fine). I think we should release this into Configurable before merging further (not yet testet) features. Do you all agree?
