Which to fork: ctrl-shift-esc, or mtikekar? #11

Closed capn-freako closed 7 years ago

capn-freako commented 7 years ago

Hi,

I'd like to prepare for contributing to this effort, by creating my own fork. It looks like @ctrl-shift-esc has been officially designated as the project maintainer. However, @mtikekar has made more recent changes to the code. From whom should I create my own fork?

Thanks, -db

mtikekar commented 7 years ago

I am not the official maintainer and I never really intended for my changes to get pulled into the main repository. So some of the changes probably break backwards compatibility. That said, if any of my changes interest you, I'd be happy to clean up my code and make a pull request.

Okay, thanks! I'll fork from @ctrl-shift-esc and stay in touch w/ you, re: you're development efforts.

Just FYI, my intent is to contribute convenient JTAG functionality to this package, if it doesn't already exist. (I haven't checked, yet.)

Cheers, -db

Sorry, didn't see this until now. Looks like @capn-freako got his answer.

Actually another guy has contacted me and I'm also curious about this question. Do you know how the _ftd2xx.py script was generated? The guy had tried to use a FT4222 chip and it doesn't seem to work. So he wants to integrate API from the new DLL.

No, sorry. I'm completely unfamiliar with the xml2py tool. -db

@ctrl-shift-esc I had used h2xml and xml2py from ctypeslib to generate the _ft2dxx.py script. I am not sure what happened to the h2xml script, but I can't find it anymore.
