Apr 30 16:07:43 <vmayoral|pc> ok so i can get started with the quick update
Apr 30 16:07:50 <praveendath92> vmayoral: Hello !
Apr 30 16:08:03 <vmayoral|pc> everything fine on my side, working close with tridge, anuj sid and the others
Apr 30 16:08:09 <vmayoral|pc> i'll keep reports here https://github.com/BeaglePilot/beaglepilot/blob/master/reports/report_victor.md
Apr 30 16:08:17 <karki> jkridner : I have been talking to panto mranostay and alexanderhiam.
Apr 30 16:08:48 <karki> jkridner : been reading about remote proc, virtio, upcalls and down calls
Apr 30 16:09:15 <vmayoral|pc> for now, i'm testing the initial work i did. I'm having some issues with the ardupilot code (specially with the I2C side). There seems to be a bug somewhere so i'm fighting with it. Still, nothing that will keep me hanged
Apr 30 16:09:30 <vmayoral|pc> i keep coding drivers which is what i'm supposed to do through the first weeks
Apr 30 16:09:33 <ds2> are intro videos done?
Apr 30 16:10:03 <vmayoral|pc> mine is, available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-giV6Xr8RtY
Apr 30 16:10:06 <vvu|Log> just beaglepilot i think :-?
Apr 30 16:10:38 <alexanderhiam> intro videos are due by first week of coding right?
Apr 30 16:11:00 <praveendath92_> vvu|Log: I created the Git repos
Apr 30 16:11:04 <karki> jkridner : I will get a detailed component splitup of my project by this weekend, then I'll make a video.
Apr 30 16:11:13 <vvu|Log> praveendath92_: seen that, just starred them :)
Apr 30 16:11:16 <vvu|Log> to keep updates from them
Apr 30 16:11:25 <rseethamraju> I started doing moving file i/o code to C and had 2 meetings now with alexanderhiam and VoltVisionSteve
Apr 30 16:11:28 <vmayoral|pc> jkridner: koen pinged me the other day suggesting to got for IIO drivers. I believe it's a great suggestion but i already agreed with tridge on building userspace drivers following previous the convention. Anyhow it can be done in the near future quite easily
Apr 30 16:11:29 <praveendath92_> yeah.
Apr 30 16:11:32 <_av500_> praveendath92: git url pls?
