Gentlemen, we are closer to the future of RNode than ever before.
I have been pressing on with my work on librnode as mentioned in the Reticulum Matrix channel some time ago. For those who do not know, librnode is a C library for interfacing with RNodes. It allows people to easily write applications for interacting with RNodes directly in C / C++ (e.g. for configuring, updating, etc). Now, the library is close to feature complete and functions incredibly well, as seen in my recent video update which you can find here.
The first program to utilise this library will be rnodeman. rnodeman will be very similar to rnodeconf and will indeed have the same features, but with several enhancements, namely:
- written in C - no python interpreter needed
- ability to import / register third party boards - no more editing the source code!
- ability to download firmware updates over RNS or the internet
…and likely more when finished!
If you have suggestions for what you’d like to see included in rnodeman besides what is already implemented in rnodeconf, you can let me know by emailing me here.
openCom XL restock
Many have asked, “when will the openCom XL be back in stock?”. I will take this opportunity to let you all know that I aim to have it back in stock before the end of the year. The reason for this is it is currently undergoing a design revision. Once the units are available I will announce the restock by sending out another newsletter.
Stay agilepilled gentlemen, TECHNOLOGY FOR FREEDOM.
