Do It Right

This page contains items that were taken off the NoDo page, but for which there are implementation requirements in order to be accepted.

Scandisk

We are not opposed to a scandisk plugin, but will not accept scandisk functionality in the core.

Bootloader menu

We already have boot menus for some targets, so it makes no sense to stubbornly refuse it for others.

However it must be implemented so that it doesn't have any impact on users who don't use it. Also the config file must be on disk, to avoid people having to reflash the bootloader for each menu change.

Bluetooth

We would like to implement bluetooth audio support on devices that have the hardware. Unfortunately there exist no bluetooth stacks with the necessary combination of features (eg "'bluetooth classic with audio support") and licensing (ie GPL-compatible). Consequently we are in a position where we would effectively have to create a new bespoke bluetooth stack from scratch, a huge undertaking that is not something any of us have a particular desire to do. However, if a suitable stack comes along, or some mad fool writes a new stack for us, we will gladly revisit this.

CategoryFAQ: Features that haven't been implemented yet for specific reasons.
