No news is good news, this is a technical hurdle (or a series of them) and possibly there are a few compromises that need to be discussed and agreed upon among all interested parties (you know, the actual interested parties) in order to keep this product alive.

These "same issues" are extant until such time as SwissMicros delivers what they promised. They concern not just Thomas and SwissMicros, but DM42 users in particular and the broader community in general. No news is definitely NOT good news; absent any news, attributing the delay on technical issue is speculative.

Quote:But if you insist... well, I'd love to see your proof of concept on how to load executables in FreeRTOS, and maybe an offer to develop an alternative GPL USB stack for this board. That would be more interesting than another round of assumptions about what can/should be done, and it also might give some pause.

I don't recall using the words "loading an executable into FreeRTOS" (at least not up-thread), but FreeRTOS is a kernel with a documented API. A FreeRTOS executable would be an application written to that API, similar to applications written to other OS kernels. No proof of concept required on my part, sample projects can be found in the documentation and distribution.

The point of making assumptions is to understand what the holdup might be, to play with scenarios. If SwissMicros is in need of a GPL USB library, I have to respectfully decline to assist; I would find it an interesting project under different circumstances.
