**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Dec 14 03:00:00 2016 Dec 14 23:01:07 jkridner|pd: Hi! I am looking to contribute to BeagleBoard.org and get a headstart for 2017 GSoC! Any potential projects where I can start contributing? Dec 14 23:01:56 carpediem_: get on the beagleboard-gsoc google group and look to see if you can give some good ideas that mentors could put on the ideas page. Dec 14 23:02:37 carpediem_: personally, I really want to see BBBlfs ported to JavaScript and integrated into etcher.io. Also, I'd want to use the UMS mode of u-boot rather than loading a kernel. Dec 14 23:03:37 I was working on a project with BBB with my professor Dec 14 23:03:54 He wanted to know if the on board Sitara supports Low Power modes? Dec 14 23:04:02 My #2 project would be creating an interactive assembler in the kernel for the PRUs with macros for SPI/I2C/GPIO/etc., like PRUspeak, but just doing it as a macro assembler. Dec 14 23:05:02 carpediem_: it does, but you'll need to do some software clean-up to make it work nicely. You can do some simple suspend-to-ram and suspend-to-disk using standard Linux operations. Dec 14 23:05:21 Will this involve writing DTOs? Dec 14 23:05:30 carpediem_: the wake-up stuff is where it gets interesting----and doing some stuff on the other lower-power cores like the M3. Dec 14 23:05:42 carpediem_: most things do. :-) Dec 14 23:05:54 carpediem_: not that it is required for the suspend modes. Dec 14 23:06:05 * jkridner has to run. good to run into you. see you on the google group. Dec 14 23:06:26 jkridner: Thanks for your time! Nice talking to you. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Dec 15 03:00:00 2016
