[Discuss-gnuradio] Embedded WG

[Philip Balister]

Recently I was asked how people can help with the embedded working
group. Currently, I a very happy with our support for Zynq based boards.
I've put together a list othings I think we can improve.

Embedded Working goals:

 1) Expand hardware support
    - Wandboard
    - r-pi2
    - Jetson
    - insert your favorite here

 2) More stuff in meta-sdr
    - sdr shiny
    - OOT modules

 3) Performance improvements
    - Need to better understand bottlenecks

 4) Killer apps!
    - Verify gnuradio examples

 5) Expand participation

The first couple of items involve OpenEmbedded work, finding BSP layers
for boards, testing them, working to get them creating easy to use
images, and writing recipes for more OOT modules.

For the next year,  I'd like to get more people actually using the
infrastructure we have. I'd like to get a list of gnuradio apps together
and start validating they run on various embedded platforms.

Even better, writing gnuradio applications designed to run well on
embedded systems.

I'd also like some feedback on who would attend a WG call sometime in
the next few weeks.
