Is there any plan merging the conundrum configs to source? #4

Hello, I have a general question. Is there any plan on merging the configs for the conundrum to the source QMK repo? It would be nice if the conundrum was included there.

Hi, unfortunately, the QMK maintainers have decided to remove support for Massdrop keyboards and since the conundrum uses the same family of microcontrollers that these keyboards have introduced I'm afraid it's not possible to merge it back.

I've been looking through the various issues over at the QMK repo, and it seems the Massdrop keyboards aren't going just yet (they're still there atleast)

It seems like there might be exciting news (which might not be as exciting for you @mewa as you might have to do some changes to how the board is currently set up) but exciting nonetheless. https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/issues/14082 mentions the issues with arm_atsam and the Massdrop keyboards.

And the original PR for removing arm_atsam and the Massdrop boards (https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/14081) is now closed, because they are currently working on a proof of concept of replacing arm_atsam with RIOT-OS https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/15464 (closed as they will make a better PR with milestone 6 whatever that means)

It seems as if development is ongoing if the "riot" branch is what I think it is.

Really hoping this goes well, and that you'll be able to merge the Conundrum into source at some point in the near or distant future.

Just a question since I'm already here, are you merging or planning to merge in new functionality of QMK every now and then?
