Projekt regnsensor

I mitt projekt med att automatisera trädgården insåg jag att en regnsensor behövdes. Bestämde mig därför för att bygga en egen från grunden upp. Den största orsaken till det var för att lära mig me…

[OT] Thank you to the people of Italy and France and Norway and Germany

We have several  heavy forest fires here in our area in the middle of Sweden at the moment due to a long period of dry weather.  Several villages are at risk and people are evacuating.  But as usual in a crisis the good in people also becomes visible when things like this happens. People donate food  to the firefighters in large amounts and help in other ways. Also we have two Italian teams flying with water bombers right now and a French team of two water bombers on the way during the day. International solidarity at it’s best.

A big thanks to the Italian and French people for your help is in place.

Edit: I hear that we have help from Noway as well so a thanks is in place to Norway to.

Edit2: And Germany support with a bunch ofg helicopters I hear. Thanks a lot for your help.

Sorry could not resist.

State of things

State of VSCP

The thought was that I would do the 13.1.0 release today. But I have to postpone this until after my summer vacation. Well it to should have started today, but it also is postponed until Tuesday. But then I will be four weeks away from the computers and the  bugs. It is very warm and dry in Sweden now, and has been so since May,  and actually an office is NOT the place to be.

I work with a full Debian package for VSCP at the moment. It is a lot of rules. A lot of info to take in. A lot of things to add and change. After this is finished I will hopefully manage to get a sponsor/mentor at Debian and after that VSCP can enter in the golden path of Debian distribution, meaning much simpler installation and update for all in the future.

So I will silence for a while from now on so don’t expect rapid replies and fixes during this time. Hopefully I will come back after the vacation with a lot of new energy.

Have fun!
