+Status Update: Glacial progress (I've been busy and/or sick) on the Example updates. I've completely re-aimed for Arduino/Python differences, with the end goal of easing transition to CP from Arduino. I'm also leaning towards creating a Learn guide, which will be exciting to work with and learn. The GitHub repository I'm working with is here: https://github.com/Andon-A/CircuitPyt... (It's literally just the examples. Don't need the whole CP repo for this)

+uid as you said earlier is done (minus pending PR). Started working on a Trellis library...+/- wires crossed... :sparky: came to town. So up next: start working on VEML6070 UV Sensor library, and practicing SMD repair once a new HT16K33 chip shows up. Other than that, cruising the Issues pages for ideas.
+
+Discussion 32:45
+* two boards connected at once, two CIRCUITPY drives
+ * default should try to be unique
+ * function to change label
+* downloads as rates instead of absolute values
+* add sdcard mounting and importing to adalogger
+* rosie - import and catalog memory use for all libraries
+* deshipu pointed out there is an issue for micropython's parser memory

+Hug reports
+hug report to sommersoft for writing up the VEML6070 sensor library!
+and dastels for the fun LED libraries
+Status
+i commited the ITsyBitsy M0 variant code to 2.2
+we'll have that hardware in hand in a week or so
+its abotu 20 GPIO pins, + 2MB flash
+so bigger than trinket but much smaller than feather
+status of isr:
+Not near-term
+i think tony's out but we have the RFM69 library done and also thermal printer library done and documented
+i know it was a common requested set of libraries

+I mainly use Circuit Python in conjunction with helping newcomers with their projects. They don't always ask in #circuitpython, either. ;)
+
+TX/RX UART pair used to connect two microcontroller projects together, but concerned with the fact both projects are connected via USB to separate laptops. When I unplugged the Trinket M0 from the USB jack, it blinked the 'are you crazy' blink pattern, which I take to be an undervoltage condition (0.9 volts under Vcc from what I measured).
+
+Also working on an R2-R ladder net to be able to read an 8-bit binary input on a single ADC pin. Front panel construction going on with that this week, since all resistors in the experimental version are 100k potentiometers!

+Exploded as in disassembled
+
+arturo182 22:26
+Since I'm new to CP I want to look more into the code, I printed the docs so I can go through them and see the modules that you offer then I want to see which ones are implemented and which are missing in the nRF port and see what I can do to help there. Can also see which functionality is duplicated by the machine module and could remove that code to keep the code cleaner.

+
+nis 38:48
+This week, I was able to interface CP2104 PiUART to
+an old 8051-based microcontroller project, to replace an
+aging MAX3232 serial interface to the host PC. I also
+finally figured out how to do the RESET and C2 (two-wire
+programming) lines for this development system, which
+requires pin sharing. The C2 interface provides in-
+circuit debugging as well as programming an uninitialized
+device. Since the Silabs C8051F330D only has 20 pins (it
+shipped in a now-deprecated DIP-20 package) and C2 isn't
+used all that often, it makes sense to share the pins for
+both C2CK and /RST (RESET). It all works now, exactly as
+the original amrFORTH system did. Serial bootloader code
+tweaking on both the host PC and the microcontroller figured
+as well.
+PiUART == awesome!
+Also did a 14-segment alphanumeric display this week, the
+hard way. ;) Kept up on discipline and have been diligently
+capturing schematics, using Fritzing.

+Update: fought LED changes to Trellis all day Saturday; don't try forcing class inheritance when it isn't needed. Got past that, now just working out the buffer slicing for LED & buttons. No movement on isSerialConnected, but that's a quick one to finish. Will visit open issues later in the week for next task.

+Finished testing every possible combination of sercom pinout with SPI and i2c on my m4 board over the weekend(works!). Started shoving more onto the board and fixing bugs until eagle took two hours of work and threw them in the trash can.
+
+Also tested QSPI which seems to be at least communicating with the chip though I’m not seeing CDC or MSC working. If I get that figured out I’ll take a look at DMA if Scott still needs a second pair of eyes
+
+I got hardware dotstar support working on the trinket m0 and my m4 board except for the part where I’m still tracking down a OS error that is thrown when trying to make a sercom on a pin that can be muxed to the same sercom as the dotstar. In doing so found a “feature” of the itsy bitsy m0 board layout that requires you to bitbang the dotstar.
+
+With luck I’ll finish the dotstar work this week and maybe finish rev b of the m4 board. Probably not this week but maybe another rev of the metrowing and a medium sized run to make some kits.
+
+If anyone has a name suggestion for my m4 board I’d love to hear it. It’s currently called the oh so creative “samd51_proto” however other ideas are “‘lil-sebastian”, “itsy-bitsy-XXL” and “THICChip" as it was meant to be bitsy sized but ended up almost as wide as a feather

+Figured out the last bit needed for hardware dotstar support in 3.0 and verified qspi flash is working on my m4 board so I’m ready to pull the trigger on some new board revisions, likely slightly smaller and somewhat larger. I’m also going to try and create a reference version with notes on how to create new board versions with more or fewer features. PM me if you’re interested in what I have so far.

+I will probably switch gears into working my pinmux tool. If anyone has javascript canvas or 31337 CSS skills, ping me as I might need a bit of help with some UI bits I’m hoping for longer term

+I’m currently working on two things in the pursuit of asyncio: selectors and deque. Not much progress yet since I’ve had a busy week here at work, but I’m still on-track for delivery of asyncio before PyCon; no impassible road-blocks yet. I’ve got all the hardware I need and I’m gonna start running things on the CPX. My goal remains asyncio to allow rainbows and IR to coexist.

+Finished the StringCar CPy code -- new motor control and string length schemes. Adapted the string car code to a model train controller that will become a learning guide. Starting the Corrosion Monitor conversion from Arduino to CPy. Made excellent progress with Feather M0-RFM69 and ILI9341 FeatherWing display drivers. Snowman (holiday lights) parts arrive from DigiKey today. Will probably develop a learning guide around that, as well.

+This last week, I got up to speed on building for ESP8266, and submitted a PR for that. I am still working on getting all the fuzzing bug reports from 2-3 weeks ago filed. I did two simple projects, one to help with "intermediate frequency alignment" of radio receivers (generating some analog signals and controlling an AD9850), and one to show accurate time from on the OLED feather wing. Neither is up on github yet; I may be asking for help to turn the NTP stuff into a library for CircuitPython though.

+CGrover 21:24
+1) Finished CPy holiday light animations. During that process, noticed that time.monotonic and time.sleep accuracy isn’t what I originally thought (and follows what the team already knows), but it's okay for the “6-hrs on” timer. As a result, developing a suite of benchmark tests to compare performance on the various CPy processor foundations, starting with time (including PWM) and then including other features such as calculation throughput, etc. Wondering if I'm reinventing something? Are there any existing benchmark test suites out there?
+2) Working with the ILIO9341 display (2.4” TFT FeatherWing) as part of the conversion of the corrosion detector from Arduino to CPy using Tony D’s library. Line and pixel graphics is functional. Next step is to incorporate his MicroPython bitmap font library.
+3) Side note: my band’s CD release party extended into the weekend but is over now. Whew. Not as resilient as I once was.
+
+dhalbert 23:07
+* working on USB hid. Fixed mouse bug over the weekend
+* add gamepad and digitizer support (touch screen or tablet, aka absolute mouse)
+
+Dave 25:30
+* lurking to see circuitpython dev process
+
+deshipu 26:04
+* https://hackaday.io/project/100853
+
+jerryn 26:36
+* mostly DHT fixing
+* learned lots about tick delay. talk more in the weeds
+
+kattni 27:04
+* hiccup so taking a couple days off
+* working on datalogging with circuitpython guide
+* prepping temp and touch for plotter videos
+* audio code is done and project
+* NYC this week too!
+
+sommersoft 28:35
+@jerryn has DHT & tick_delay PRs in, so that is just about done. Will continue to push against ESP8266 GPIO16 (Magic 8 Ball: outlook not good). Might work on PulseIn for ESP/nRF.
+
+ladyada 29:50

+Primary project (besides installing drip irrigation – an irrigation “circuit” playground of sorts) was to finish and test the CPy mirror galvanometer parameter-driven servo inertia controller helper. The goal was to achieve uniform movement speed. (The algorithm could also be used for steadying camera pan-tilt movement.) Control parameters include current x-y position (degrees), target x-y position (degrees), movement step size (degrees), maximum movement rate (seconds per 180 degrees), and a pause-at-target-position setting (seconds). Results were very good even when using micro servos with sloppy plastic gears.
+Next steps include testing projection onto the back of a sheet of translucent glow-in-the-dark plastic.
+Repository with servo helper and example: https://github.com/CedarGroveStudios/Galvanometer
+M4 arrives later today! Will start testing with previously-implemented CPy projects before trying new stuff. #HappyCamper

+ESP8266 GPIO16 - Now that I'm chasing the actual problem, trying to get the firmware to build with the SDK's specific functions for GPIO16. Will probably still require changes in pin handling though.
+
+ESP8266/nRF PulseIn - I've peeked at ESP a little. Most of what we'll need is scattered about in the machine_ and mod files. Haven't looked at nRF yet; kind of waiting on microbuilder and Arturo to put up any recent work.
+
+Lastly, still working on a Windows+Atmel Studio SAMD debugging guide to add to the current one. Outline/structure mostly done.
+
+Discussion (In the weeds) 29:26

+Have a release 0.1.0 of VGKits vanguard repo, not yet pushed up to https://github.com/vgkits/vanguard
+Logo and Graphic Animations through SVG and Sozi to support Vlogging Tweens https://vgkits.org/tmp/logo/text_16_9.sozi.html e.g. blending video tutorials with SVGs like https://github.com/vgkits/vanguard/blob/master/vector/cover.svg
+Rendering Desktops for Vlogging (non-standard pixel ratios - e.g. Half 1080p to tile with Two cameras like TonyD) through Xephyr
+So so looking forward to merging in demos of Adafruit-Blinka once the VGKits Rainbow kit and vlog launch process is over.

+CGrover 21:17
+Have an M4 in-hand. Tested it against 3 existing CPy projects. No issues yet. Will probably work on some comparative benchmarks in my project space.
+Working on PCB designs: 1) MIDI-DIN interface FeatherWing with integrated DSP-G1 synthesizer chip, designed for Feather M0 Express and CircuitPython. 2) Neuvo LiPo StringCar, ½ size of existing, LiPo charger, Trinket M0 and CircuitPython. 3) Various other PCB bits like LiPo charger breakout w/o USB, a mini DSP-G1 synth breakout (for inserting into an existing MIDI controller keyboard), and a panel-mount dual MIDI-DIN jack breakout with optional logic interface.
+Obviously will have to start CircuitPython coding of a bunch of MIDI control code helpers and a custom analog-ish voice catalog now…
+
+dhalbert 22:46
+* finished gamepad support. in alpha.6. need game suggestions
+* circuitpython build guide without vagrant. linux, mac and Windows subsystem for linux
+* SAMD51 cache work. breaks filesystem code but speeds up regular loop code
+* tmp36 temp sensor debugging. electrical problem
+* cpu.temperature in 3.0. compiled and works on samd21
+* discussion on library additions
+
+deshipu 25:30
+I'm working on a conference badge for Python conferences that's programmable in CircuitPython. I just got the first pixels displayed, I still need to fix the Python libraries for this, but I'm very happy with how they look. I'm also working on samd51-based version of the µGame handheld game console, for now making an Arduino-compatible shield with a display and buttons to test everything on the Metro M4. I also got the µGame 10 back in stock at Tindie again.

+Joining Adafruit today
+Intro - first full day for Adafruit.
+Writing book for MAKE - getting started with CircuitPlayground Express. MakeCode + CircuitPython + Arduino
+Retiring from US Department of State. He's very diplomatic :-)
+
+sommersoft 34:22
+ESP8266 GPIO16 - Done!
+
+Started looking at SAMD high frequency Pulse in issue. Very likely an execution speed problem as discussed in the issue. Still researching possible alternatives.
+
+Got farther on Windows+Atmel Studio SAMD debugging guide. Have a few more screenshots left to grab, and need to write the details of how to find and view information (breakpoints, traces, etc).

+Discussion: 35:28
+* Any suggestions which other programming/making Youtube channels I should learn from?
+ * LazyGameReviews
+ * scanlime - Micah Scott
+ * nostalgianerd
+ * ThisDoesNotCompute
+ * short, punchy tutorials
+ * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCxzA9_kg6s&list=PLA567CE235D39FA84
+* dhalbert library placement questions - 39:01
+ * arduino map in simpleio
+ * calls for better, more accurate clock and timing. anyone know of a python library equivalent.
+ * micropython has ticks_ms or
+ticks_us
+I wonder if it would make sense to have a helper function that simply delays until a certain time passes from its last call
+because that's what you usually use those ticks for
+sommersoft - Today at 11:47 AM
+That would be extending wait_until...but, yeah. Interrupts...
+cater - Today at 11:47 AM
+isn't that time.sleep()?
+deshipu - Today at 11:47 AM
+well, I use it for keeping a constant frame rate
+@cater not quite, time.sleep sleeps for a certain time, not until certain time passes since the last time
+hard to do without callbacks
+maybe with await
+* jerryn radio weeds
+ * trying to use feather combo board. bossa problems. bossa 1.9 is latest but adafruit links to 1.8
+ * offer help with radio
+* jerryn clock stretching follow up 47:02
+ * from deshipu:
+ the bitbangio has a copy of code and doesn't use extmod/i2c.c
+ well, the fix is that it doesn't use a hardcoded timeout anymore
+ but the default timeout should work in most cases
+ it's over 250µs
+ or to use code from extmod/i2c.h/.c instead of a copy
+ we will miss further fixes if we keep using a copy
+* Is there any reference information about use of Webrepl in Circuitpython? I have found Adafruit tutorial resources for its use in Micropython 50:00
+ * works the same way
+ * is support for webrepl mainstream?

+* jerryneedell for RFM9x LoRa driver improvements and debugging with 3.x
+
+@Andon 7:29
+Group Hug, as always, because everyone's awesome. Also to @sommersoft for hopping in and helping help someone debug Arduino stuff last night
+
+@cefn 7:37
+Hug reports to all the unsung heroes, who bothered to document the edge-cases of every possible version and project configuration of Open source nonlinear video editors Flowblade and latterly Kdenlive as well as everything else I've had to fix this week - did I mention I hate Android phones
+
+@cater 8:45
+group hug!
+
+@Cgrover 8:55
+Group hug!
+Thank you to those who fixed power/bootup issue in circuitpython.
+
+@dhalbert 9:19
+* Thank to croadfelt for consistently breaking file system.
+* Thanks to jerryneedell who reliably fixes our code too. :-) Found file system permission regression that will be fixed in 2.3.1
+
+@jerryn 10:06
+* Group hug
+* dhalbert for file system help
+
+@kattni 10:25
+* dhalbert for CPX file system fix. just in time for CPX based conference badge.
+* group hug!
+
+@sommersoft 11:03
+* Just a big 'ol group hug this week!
+
+Status Update 11:28
+
+@cefn 11:55
+Been digging through the PS2 mechanical keyboards in the workshop's collection of recycled hardware. Dell AP102W (with Alps switches) might be coming your way next week !
+
+@tannewt 12:32
+* Got PDMIn checked in.
+* Working on touchio for SAMD51.
+* PyCon this week/weekend! No meeting next Monday. Will cover it the next week.
+
+@Andon 15:08
+Not at all CP related, but I hit "Fully Functional" with the code for my DigiBadges - On-board flash is working and semi-dynamic loading of SD cards now works, along with a few bugfixes. Next up: Trying to cram a menu system into the last 11% of program space on the ATMega328p - 3366 bytes!
+
+@cater 15L52
+Nothing new
+
+@cefn 16:07
+Recording Studio is built and automated with 4 cameras - Android phones for Wide and Macro, Kodak Closeup and X11Grab FFMPeg desktop recordings, synchronized automatically through audio using handy Kdenlive behaviour then edited through their handy Multi-view editing interface. All at 720p, is that too retro? Was just a bit easier since desktop pixels were bigger/readable, and render/preview times were lesser. How important is 1080p for online vids?
+
+@CGrover 17:16
+* Not much CircuitPython. Sent PCBs off to fab house.
+* Learning Kicad!
+* Libraries are confusing in Kicad.
+* red and blue tape to create mask at 2x
+
+@Dan Halbert 19:34
+* Battery power fix
+* working on M4 cache enable and QSPI support. MPU may help
+* thanks to jepler for help
+* pycon, flying thursday
+
+@jepler
+there's a lot going on this morning! @tannewt I can't make it to the weekly meeting today due to $DAY_JOB obligations, so here's a summary of what I'm up to. This weekend was mostly spent finding (afl-fuzz), fixing and reporting crashing bugs in uzlib to upstream. CP and MP incorporate uzlib by copy, not by submodule; so I plan to prepare CP and MP pull requests with my fixes this week as well. Besides that I will pick off issues blocking CP3.0 according to my time and ability.
+
+jerryn 21:30
+* Playing with LoRa. Much improved!
+* lowered default SPI rate due to flakiness
+* rfm69 may have similar issues. frequency control doesn't work
+
+kattni 23:04
+* convention this weekend and workshop with circuitplayground express.
+* wrote circuitpython for badge sophy did.
+* two plotter pages done, waiting for videos
+* guide with gemma for pycon gemmas. touch interface to change lights
+* prepping hardware for open space tutorials
+* leave for pycon on thursday
+
+MikeBarela 24:58
+* thank everyone for suggestions and pull requests!
+* newsletter comes out tomorrow!
+* no weekly meeting next week but we do have newsletter
+
+sommersoft 26:09
+Atmel Studio debugging guide is drafted. Needs review; awaiting feedback.
+
+High Frequency PulseIn: started framework for SAMD Timer/Counter capture. pulseio.FrequencyIn is my working title. Will only focus on frequency; not planning to include PWM capture. Should be portable to at least nRF52840, if not both nRFs. ESPxx, probably not...
+
+Discussion (In the weeds) 27:37
+* Anyone else found SPI issues? rfm9x radio issues including system hang and file corruption. lowered baudrate made it all ok. talk with @jerryneedell if doing radio (rfm69 and LoRa) stuff. circuitpython can talk to arduino and vice versa.
+* 30:47 Still have a puzzle around junk on input of UART of NodeMCU-M (ESP8285) - not the usual junk coming from the output pin, unless it can feed back somehow. https://forum.micropython.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=4707&p=27248&hilit=uart#p27248
+* 31:50 For the sprint, will discord be live? Maybe a digital/online sprint during the weekend would be easier and more fun.
+ * Schedule digital sprint!
+* 35:30 PyCon talks are posted soon after they occur.

+Finally got the first Youtube video out https://vgkits.org/blog/2018/05/08/introductory-video-tutorial/ (thanks for feedback from those who went out of their way and out of their comfort zone to watch it!).
+
+Finally told twitter about the VGKits Vanguard board and put up some Paypal buttons to buy the Rainbow kit. Tested to prove minimum function on the board in both v2 and v3 of Circuitpython.
+
+Trying to figure out whether to go strong on Circuitpython or Micropython. Currently as per the demo shown in the video everything is dependent on exporting main.py symbols to the REPL shell, and having in-memory continuity between main.py and the REPL. Need to work through this to work out how to spin this up on Circuitpython, or rethink our approach.
+
+Oh and saved my PhD (continuation panel) and rebuilt my laptop which imploded.
+
+This week I'll be figuring out how to keep up with @biglesp's prolific blogging and actually putting some content up on VGKits.
+
+Need your ideas what to build which would be the most affordable for educators?
+
+CGrover 26:12

+* returned from pyocn and followed up on PRs
+* jerryn found mysterious bug. error in boot output handling
+* limor and phil are building crickit stuff and dan is build special builds for it
+* this week: busio instances singletons rather than pins in use
+
+jepler 33:23
+I've continued working on low-level issues with uzlib and ujson because they're likely to be used in IoT type devices where security is important. The most interesting bug I've discovered while looking for bugs in ujson actually affects regular circuitpython, where a numeric literal with a very large exponent evaluates to the wrong value (including when you write them directly in a .py source, not in json). The number-parsing bugs I found are all fixed in micropython now, but they have a low impact so I'm not planning to pull-request them in circuitpython. As far as uzlib goes, the maintainer has been optimizing some of my changes to have the minimum possible impact on code size. It will take some time to get them all accepted, but things are progressing and I'm confident we'll get to the point of having a uzlib that can be fed untrusted input.
+
+jerryn 29:48
+* bunch of little things.
+* clock stretching changes checked into bitbangio, bno055 uses it most. cater will test, code is checked in. ccs811 gas sensor also caused some issues (turning down frequency made it better). timeout is configurable now
+* back to playing with CPX on 3.0. Audioio has been changed and updated
+* tmp007, infrared thermo sensor. based on tdicola's raspberry pi driver
+* gone next week. week and a half to two weeks!

+New to the world of Adafruit & CircuitPython, but loving it. :tada:
+- Will be introducing my coworkers to the Gemma and CircuitPythonExpress today.
+- Possibly do some project work with the boards I have.
+- Some day I will bash through the sphinx code and generate the circuitpython C code into Python stub code... one can dream

+Receiving my first M4 was like being let out of jail, so I'm still on tilt about that. ;)
+ Have not taken a survey of what we can already do in CircuitPython with QSPI flashrom (assumed a lot here) but went right into Ardino for this:
+
+Arduino Forth (YAFFA-ARM) ported to the SAMD51 M4 chip:
+
+
+ I did a 3.x alpha 6 build -- having tested @Dan Halbert 's new CircuitPython Firmware Build Guide (HUG) and it worked -- but I don't remember what MCU it was for. Metro M0 Express or Metro M4 Express (one of the two).
+
+
+ Working on QSPI flash read/write primitives for Arduino and this Forth interpreter (more thinking than working/typing/coding).
+
+ I did a full memory dump of the M4 to convince myself there's really that much space inside that thing.
+ There is. ;)
+
+Roy 45:30
+* sprints
+* Other than helping bisect the bug Dan fixed over the weekend and the work I did at the sprints, I have been and will continue to be exploring LED colours and existing code samples and libraries like FancyLED and FastLED as well asl tons of code samples on the adafruit site, for arduino, in preparation to write higher order animation methods (specificall generators) to help with LED animations. The goal is to to make it dead simple to animate LEDs. This has led me down the path of reading up on RGB light perception and gamma and the like. I have some hardware arriving tomorrow that will help me with animating more than just single dotstars - such as strips, matrices and rings. I expect to be able to drive a number of different devices shortly with acceptable looking colour cycles. Time permitting, i'll follow on with a bunch of other common patterns like comet, which will help stucture the library to be easy to extend. I expect to run into performance challenges, and will eventually have to start to move some code into C, but will delay doing so until I run into problems where I need to free up cycles or memory.
+* LED light perception
+* hardware coming tomorrow!
+* performance and memory issues will point to what needs to be done in C.
+
+sdw_nj 47:40 (scott w)
+* playing around with micro:bit.
+* add support for circuitpython into thonny
+* feature parity with micro:bit in thonny first
+
+sommersoft 51:03
+Atmel Studio debugging guide has had some reviews and edits from suggestions.
+
+High Frequency PulseIn: SAMD21 framework is done, and "working". Still trying to figure how to fail gracefully (can maybe apply to PulseIn too). May end up attempting DMA to maybe help alleviate endless interrupt loop. SAMD51 will start after that, and most likely be quicker since I don't have to mess with EVSYS and EIC.

+Last week I was in Seattle, and met up with @tannewt - Much tech was talked, and I now own a Game Boy. I'm also planning on (eventually) making my DigiBadges CP-powered, but that's far-future stuff.

+@Cgrover 18:03
+A week of “Fun with MIDI Synthesizers” trying to figure out exactly what my MIDI controller keyboard was sending – and why. Had to dive more deeply into the MIDI protocol than ever before. Created a sniffer with CPy that used a custom MIDI interface Wing PCB to feed the UART pins on a Feather M0 Express. Implementing the MIDI protocol stack in CPy with verbose descriptions was a memory hog, but eventually was able to get the sniffer to fit on a Trinket M0. CPy was sufficiently responsive to a 31.25K baud data stream and didn’t drop a byte -- once I figured out what I was doing. Sniffer code is here: https://github.com/CedarGroveStudios/MIDI_FeatherWing
+My Trinket-sized modular stackable interface PCBs should arrive later this week. The plan is to use the “Rover” boards to build some musical synthesizer projects, upgrade the StringCar to manage LiPo battery power, and significantly reduce the StringCar controller footprint. Hoping that Adafruit gets the Hot Air Rework Station back in stock this week so that I won’t have to place an order with that faceless Amazon monster.

+I fixed most issues with µGame in CP 3.0 (pull request in review). The last problem still left is the new memory requirement of AudioIO, which makes the existing games not run anymore due to MemoryError. Next, I will try to optimize the µGame firmware a bit in terms of free memory and speed — remove any unused modules and options, play with linker settings, make SPI transfers non-blocking, etc. The µGame Turbo (with SAMD51) is now cancelled so I will have more time for software. I also tested the CircuitPython Badge at the Hackaday Belgrade conference, and I'm very happy with how it works — both the visibility of the display and the power consumption of the whole thing (lasted 3 days on 3×AAA alkaline batteries).
+There was a badge on the conf, and they made it run micropython: https://twitter.com/micko_mame/status/1001154959935791106
+
+@Josh 23:00
+* preparing for local code club. micro:bit and circuitplayground
+* 123 Coding Cards - http://123.edublocks.org/
+
+@kattni 24:57
+* too busy to keep track.
+* working on guide for CPX library
+* learn repo linting work - 45 files left. contact kattni to coordinate help
+
+@nis 28:55
+* Pulled into the rabbit hole of writing firmware for the new Crickit (CPX variant) board.
+ Have an operational Forth interpreter for the Crickit.
+ Base is ItsyBitsyM0 Arduino; CPX, Trinket M0 and ItsyBitsyM0 can all be used as a base for this board.
+ This is of course off-label use of a Crickit; it bypasses the need for a bolt-on CPX for certain low-demand applications.
+ Also built the canonical firmware for Crickit, and loaded it without difficulty.
+ NOTE: The 3-terminal NeoPixel connector on the Crickit does not require any new software -- it is a passthrough connection and does not operate via i2c. That was in the Guide but is easy to miss.
+ CircuitPython use of Crickit seems easy and intuitive - I expect a short learning curve for newcomers, once the basic concepts are understood.
+* YAFFA-ARM - Yet Another Forth for Arduino. My port of it in this tree (URL provided points to a local copy of the upstream source):
+https://github.com/wa1tnr/ainsuForth-gen-exp/tree/master/0-Distribution.d
+
+@sdw_nj 31:14
+Nothing to report yet as far as progress, hopefully more next week.
+I'm thinking that I may mess with a python vim plugin as an intermediate step, attempting to interact with the microbit via uflash and microFS (and maybe bitio) before messing with the thonny code.
+
+sommersoft 31:46
+Atmel Studio guide is published. Ran a couple more iterations of trying to use the "Project from Makefile"; still hitting toolchain hiccups. Won't be giving it too much attention.
+
+High Frequency PulseIn: SAMD51 TC capture direct from pin isn't going well. Might just use the same method as SAMD21 (events trigger the TC interrupt). After that, I'll tighten up the documentation and push a PR to get it reviewed by professionals: :smile: I still need to research porting to other chipsets, and/or stub them.
+
+ESP8266 GPIO12 .configure: should be a straight forward fix. Just need to carve out some time.
+
+Discussion (In the weeds) 33:28
+* The current PR for the Learn Guide repo is here: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Learning_System_Guides/pull/200 This failure list is the most up-to-date. Please let me know if you want to help so I can explain how I'm doing it and make sure we're not duplicating work. from @kattni 33:41
+* @deshipu - I'd like to talk about the AudioIO buffer, if possible. Would it make sense for me to send a pull request that lets it use a pre-allocated buffer? 34:00
+* @CGrover 35:45 - Q: any plans to improve text handling for the OLED wing? (and TFT wings?)
+ * will be looking at it in the future
+* @Josh 37:51 I have a topic discussion, what are the next steps to get CircuitPython more exposure in the classroom. Are there plans to have classroom dedicated resources for teachers?

+* dhalbert and kattni for lib improvements including shrinking lis3dh
+* kattni for first draft of code of conduct
+
+@sommersoft 7:21
+Hugs: @tannewt for making the SAMD peripheral functions more modular; really opens up some future growth. @Dan Halbert for the myriad of troubleshooting on GitHub & Discord (and probably the forums, too) this week. @CGrover for the MIDI boards and exploration; its inspirational to see that stuff pop up. And a group hug for all the things my exhausted mind can't conjure up right now.
+
+@cater 7:54
+* group hug
+
+@cefn 8:05
+Group hug and hugs to all the PyPI, Thonny and other maintainers (Punyforth, Espressif) for the work they've done and for patiently and capably handling issues.

+kattni and dhalbert for rotary encoder
+
+Status Updates 12:50
+
+@tannewt 13:22
+* Added rotary encoder support
+* Fixed AudioOut
+* Fixed brownout detection
+* samd21 uses external clock and saves calibration now
+
+@sommersoft 16:29
+Status: didn't get much further on FrequencyIn. Did manage to rebase to current master with the peripheral function changes. That was my mushy brain limit. Will re-attack when I get back later this week.
+
+@cater 16:52
+* nothing last week.
+* this week start work on ht16k33 led backpack work:
+https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_HT16K33/issues/8
+
+@cefn 20:42
+Hammering out dents: see recording for image.
+
+Built landscape and double-landscape Hackintosh and Windows 10 images for testing of cross-platform tools.
+
+Built https://vgkits.org/blog/connecting-intro/ information - cross platform instructions for getting started (fairly generic to any ESP8266).
+
+Built cross-platform vgkits-vanguard package to deliver command line tools to adopters of Vanguard, cutting the install steps and complexity opening up use of Circuitpython, Espruino, Adafruit_Blinka, and even Punyforth to a single command and a <20 second flashing routine.
+
+See https://pypi.org/project/vgkits-vanguard/ for my first ever tool published to PyPI! It works too
+
+Started just trying to build out to this, and as it became more and more insane had to solve it via building my own PyPI package. https://vgkits.org/blog/connecting-with-miniterm/
+
+Guide and feedback welcome: https://vgkits.org/blog/pip3-howto/
+
+Sorry this is the best landing page for connecting to Vanguard (or any other CircuitPython/Micropython ESP8266 assuming you have the drivers) over USB using vgkits-vanguard https://vgkits.org/blog/vanguard-usb-howto/ welcome feedback and issues if this can be of use to anyone else. All the other links I shared are not so useful.
+
+@CGrover 24:21
+Besides pushing memory limits due to some large string arrays and trying to use OLED and TFT display libraries for text, been predominately heads-down revising some PCB designs. Reached my limit for hand-soldering and needed to make some adjustments. (Met my hand-soldering nemeses: SOT-723 and SOT23-5.) Still need to experiment with CPy memory management approaches but I’m enjoying the learning process.
+Will complete the CPy-based DSP-G1 MIDI synth this week. Also plan to send the next batch of four “Rover” PCBs to OSH Park in a couple of days.
+Off topic: my band’s final gig is Saturday. A great 15-year run with my brothers from another mother. Mixed emotions.
+
+@dhalbert 25:35
+* Debugging PDMIn mic issues on CPX. Seemingly fixed by tannewt's changes.
+* Finding space on CPX build by shrinking/optimizing libraries.
+* sdcard next

+
+@sdw_nj 50:42
+I just did a bit of reading/research last week. This week I'm going to concentrate on working my way through the micro:bit micropython documentation and trying as many of the examples as I have the ability to try. I've found a few things to recommend documentation improvements for.
+After getting through the documentation I'll check out bitio. Then I'll figure out what to do next.
+
+@brentr 58:16
+* updated sgp30 to use new naming for gas sensors. updated learn guides
+* adafruit.io stuff now
+* IR sending library example pull request
+
+Discussion (In the weeds):
+* spi flash eraser/ zombies 51:48
+ * main.py caused continuous interrupts thus freezing out the repl
+ * safemode uf2 might be too much
+ * very rare, documentation on erase might be best solution
+ * watchdog timer to safe mode could work as well
+* #offtopic still valid 54:55
+ * behavior changes vs closing the channel down
+ * moderation should occur on every channel including #offtopic

+* https://bitbucket.org/plas/thonny-esp
+
+@Cgrover 10:57
+Group hug to the awesome CPy team. Originally, I could only understand about 10% of the discussions. I’m now up to 20%. Exposure to the technical terms and approaches has helped to spur me to learn more. Focused hugs to @OldCrow for sharing his ModulePlayground work -- has changed my approach to MIDI control message handling for my CircuitPython microsynth project. Also to @JohnPark who provided feedback and patiently endured my obsessed ramblings about the microsynth project and supporting PCBs. More importantly, he gave me some new vectors to pursue regarding the overall approach to music synthesis. I will need a bigger maker budget.
+
+@Dan Halbert 12:01
+* Worked on PDMIn bug for 10 days on and off. Ruled lots out but cant fix it. Added code to detect problem and un-hang
+* Working on home projects with crickit and assistive tech project
+* Will be at boston python meetup
+
+hug reports from dan 13:40

+* hug report to dan for helping work through issues
+* everyone is great!
+
+MikeBarela 17:16
+* 10 points to dan for using correct ameliorate usage
+* worth nothing in adafruit store
+* dastels, limor has your guide
+* writing guide for servos and motors
+
+next week combine hug reports and status updates
+
+nis 19:10
+@sommersoft for pointing directly to the list of supported CP boards to a user (I need to start paying attention to README.md files!)
+And to the the milieu for keeping me aware of ESP8266 enough to know it's supported in CP.
+For the CircuitPython devs who dared to develop this Python very publicly, on Discord. ;)
+
+sdw_nj 19:56
+* general kudos to everyone here and micro:bit, micropython and thonny folks
+
+sommersoft 20:27
+* just a group hug this week
+
+Status 20:53
+
+@tannewt 21:30
+* PulseIn recovery from fast input signal. Had to tweak samd.clock size stuff a bit.
+* Visualization of code size done.
+* Lots of brainstorming about gaming handheld design and apis
+* beta.1 today along with newsletter and then bug hunting for 3.0.0
+
+@andon 23:53
+I'm taking a poke at looking into the next version of my DigiBadges, and what I'll need to include a SAMD chip (Likely the 21) for CircuitPython on there. I'll definitely be looking at the super-sizing that @dastels did a while back.
+
+@brentr 24:43
+converting ipython kernel to circuitpython. polishing up carol's work!
+
+@cater 25:20
+* nothing new this week
+
+@cefn 25:33
+Resolved some screwy behaviours I encountered when testing miniterm on Windows.
+This has led to a rollup pull request you can see at https://github.com/pyserial/pyserial/pull/351 which should hopefully fix miniterm for Windows 10 users in general.
+Can be tested by installing the vgkits-vanguard tools which already incorporate the fix following https://vgkits.org/blog/vanguard-tools-howto/ and running just 'vanguard shell' which should auto-detect ESP8266 on all platforms.
+
+This week I'll be taking care of William ( see top right corner of https://youtu.be/KJ45g0Bf6x8?t=12s )
+Any ideas for cat-entertainer circuits driven by Circuitpython? Thinking servos, PWM beeps, mice appearing, disappearing.
+
+@CGrover 28:27
+Mostly PCB revisions over the past week. The Trinket-based Rover family should be done after boards arrive next week, just in time to start looking at the ItsyBitsy/Feather M4 for the next generation of building blocks.
+Had a breakthrough regarding the MIDI protocol stack issue I faced two weeks ago when trying to fill CPy lists with verbose MIDI message descriptors. The primary issue was the space consumed by unused and undefined message headers. Woke up this morning and decided to go back to simpler (but still verbose) dictionaries with a non-sequential index, leaving out unused definitions and letting Try – Except handle the missing elements. Duh.
+Next week’s plan is to finalize the microsynth code and to assemble the Rover board family with my spankin’ new hot air station. Wish me luck.
+
+@Dan Halbert 29:30
+* Worked on PDMIn bug for 10 days on and off. Ruled lots out but cant fix it. Added code to detect problem and un-hang

+* dug out quadruped robots and designed pcb for tindie kit: https://hackaday.io/project/158981-kubik-m0
+* soldered first qfn package of samd. easier than anticipated
+
+@kattni 37:13

+and of course contributors: carter, cefn, sommersoft, deshipu, CG, jepler, jerryn... more more more i see all the great projects and commits they're awesome :smiley:
+blinka_cooking4
+update for me is itsy m4 is out, feather m4 on the way
+no plans yet on the mega m4
+but we'll probably saunter into it some time this month
+feather crickit is out
+great for feather bots, could be used with m0 xpress or esp8266 for iot bots
+
+@MikeBarela 44:18
+* better documentation for motros and servos with circuitpython and crickit.
+* guide last week on prepping audio files for circuitpython and the tools you can use to get your audio in that format. want to see more projects with cool audio. never assume the audio off the internet is the exact same format that will work on circuitpython
+* everyone is doing great work
+
+@nis 46:27
+Studying the uses of the H-Bridge (DRV8833) and trying to learn the heuristics of estimating which loads will be within the constraints of the Crickit at 5 volts --
+ trying to learn how to stay within the design goals of the Crickit system (rather than circumventing them).
+ Noticed that basically there's one set of four Darlington drivers (as with ULN2003A) which is good for a singleton Unipolar stepper, I think -- and one set of four H-Bridge terminals for the Bipolar stepper.
+ Note the easiest way to discern between them is that the one brings out +5V (the Darlington, as it completes the ground by sinking current) and the other (DRV8833) (the H-Bridge) brings out GND as its fifth terminal.
+ DRV8833 is available as its own breakout, if you're hunting more documentation.
+

+sdw_nj 51:32
+* got through micro:bit tutorial but had feedback that couldn't be incorporated

+sommersoft 59:39
+High Frequency PulseIn: SAMD51 is working with the EIC/EVSYS, though it seems less accurate than SAMD21 in my testing. Maybe DFLL48 related (grasping at straws)?? Have started framework for using COUNT as an alternative, as suggested by @tannewt. Also started reading on nRF timer docs for implementation. Since the High Frequency PulseIn issue was closed, I was thinking of changing the Frequency counter issue to separate out the sensor that is requested into a different issue. < https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/issues/807%3E
+
+Dismantled an old satellite surround speaker, to see if I can use it for a Little Leslie amp using :blinka: and Crikit. Planned to use an Adafruit box, but current speakers are too large. Still early days on this...
+
+Discussion (In the weeds)
+* stepper 1:01:15 - avoid steppers and use servo motors. no heat, much faster but a little more expensive. prices nema-23/24 almost the same price. no reason to use steppers

+* Did a lot of experimenting with git and github this week, and found a means to synchronize the branch to master (in terms of number of commits ahead or behind) on stackexchange.
+
+https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34118404/what-i-can-do-to-resolve-1-commit-behind-master
+
+Being able to sync allows me to experiment more freely without worrying so much about consequences.
+@Dan Halbert 's suggestion to try gitk was apropos.
+gitk allows me to gain good visualization of the state of my local git repository, prior to any commit.
+
+Looked at diode clamping protection of port pins (again) this week.
+I'm in the process of distinguishing placebo from useful protection.

+FrequencyIn Module: I abandoned using COUNT for the time being; MP_OBJ_NEW_SMALL_INT was giving me too much grief, post math. Working on accuracy, as I believe it is largely tied to the EIC latency. Currently catching up on all the math I never did/paid attention to. Hug report to Kahn Academy? :smile:
+
+Debating on picking up a nRF52840 Dev board. Who am I kidding; it's not a debate....
+
+Little Leslie amp: Spent some time on this over the weekend. Salvaged a surround satellite speaker, which include a 1" tweeter, 3" mid-driver, and crossover. The Crickit's amp drove them very well. Started a SketchUp for the cabinet, and brainstorming on the rotating bits. Fighting feature creep is tough...

+
+Status updates 13:56
+
+14:40 @tannewt
+* Got pip process going for circuitpython libraries
+* Switching keyboard layouts for comfort. so slow to type for now
+* did heap analysis and found a number of improvements. will work to get them in this week
+* Also want to explore cpu profiling idea
+
+19:08 Roy-Today at 10:46 AM
+I won't be able to make today's call, but my status update is: I've done some work on pixelbuf to implement a ByteOrder class and implement all the RGB/BGR/RGBW/RGBA classes that encode bytes per pixel and byte order details. These will be usable in the future NeoPixel2 and Dotstar2 classes that will be using the RGBLED base class that I have just started working on.
+
+20:00 dastels-Today at 10:48 AM
+I won't make it, but I've been working with CP quite a bit. New guide went live today that's based on CP. (edited)
+
+20:25 HappyDay-Today at 10:52 AM
+i've been beavering away on a CP c module that sets up an external interrupt then goes into (m0) standby mode...i've written up what I've done (source is there too). I think I am close, but probably not handling the EIC correctly? If anyone has a moment ... advice VERY much appreciated....writeup: https://github.com/BitKnitting/wakey_circuitpython/wiki/Circuit-Python-and-m0-Standby-mode
+
+21:17 @brentr - Doing a lot of renovation on the python library for AdafruitIO, lot of old issues dating back to 2015, MQTT not using secure ports, edited location and it takes it, throwing in Blinka later this week, will get some IO examples for Blinka going
+
+22:15 @cater - HT16K33 repo, the last PR was to fix something I broke with segmented displays, so they currently work as well as they used to, but @deshipu made a comment regarding different sized versions, and it’s going to be interesting to make it work between the two. Ordered up a larger one to work with. A lot of differences between the two sizes.
+
+24:34 @Dan Halbert - Someone found onewire doesn’t work at all - two problems, digitalinout switch to input didn’t work, fixed this. Then worked but had CRC errors, after debugging it was because it was trying to do precise timing and turned off interrupts, and timer code won’t work right in some cases, systic timer fails some of the time. Calibrated loops to do microsecond timing and put it back in, and OneWire works now without complaint. Also was starting to write up Crickit testing, wrote a wrapper library for Crickit (like CPX lib), and went through 3 api iterations, now it’s simple. Ping @Dan Halbert if you would like to test, because he’ll send you a Uf2 to test it. And will start on NRF stuff.
+
+28:05 @jepler - no CP time in the last two weeks, but I have been doing fun hobby stuff with GPS-based precision timing. A friend and I tuned a 40 year old crystal oven to exactly 4,320,000Hz according to GPS.
+
+28:48 @jerryn - bunch of time playing with servos on the crickit, thanks to Dan for help with that, and then spent a lot of time in playing with Blinka, if you want to try a lib that isn’t officially ported yet, you can download the lib and example into the same directory, it works. Trying to get RFX95 stuff working on RPI.
+
+30:15 @ladyada - ok i finally sat down and make a MVP of adafruit_blinka on raspberry pi
+its held together with twine, but it works!
+digitalio, i2c (busio) and spi (busio) are tested. SPI is still minimal, but i2c and digitalio are good. the next steps are getting all our libraries tested and into pypi
+UART and PWM will come later, have to be sneaky with those
+for other linux boards like BBB or orangepi etc, we'll use mraa
+if anyone here is an mraa expert, or have 'arcane' linux boards now would be a SUPER AWESOME time to help out
+thats it!
+
+31:20 @kattni - Last week: I finished up the Git/GitHub guide everyone mentioned. Finished the Code of Conduct. Started working on code for Audio for the CP Essentials guide. I found that the code for AudioOut and RawSample examples in RTD are wrong, so I submitted a PR for that. Started running through the Essentials guide code with the ItsyBitsy M4 - found some issues with that, board now includes things that aren’t pins, so any script that uses pins to determine applicable pin pairs fails miserably as-is.
+Next up: working on an audio page for the CircuitPython Essentials guide. Will use 3.0. Go over the current I2C guide to make sure it’s up to date. Deploy the CoC to Discord and begin working to deploy it to GitHub repos - find people interested in helping with this.
+
+@MikeBarela - lurking.

+40:23 @oldcrow - lurking
+
+40:43 @reveriequest - just following along! Just small random learning projects
+
+41:05 @sommersoft - FrequencyIn Module: didn't work this much last week; video game vortex. Tightened M4 numbers a little (leftover EXTINT async setting from tests). I've started a spreadsheet to help find a pattern in the results to attempt calibration; it's not appearing linearly ATM. I may add calibration ability for the user side. M0 is still pretty much spot on.
+
+Little Leslie amp: I have a draft design for the rotating assemblies, and most of the BOM for applicable bits. Initial budget projection...blown to pieces. :D
+
+The game was BF3.
+
+42:45 In The Weeds
+@jerryn - blinka. Wanted to know what would happen if you just grab an unported driver and try to use it. Copy driver into where python stuff gets installed -worked, but not great idea. Created subdirectory with test script and driver in that, it works fine. Is there any reason this isn’t a good idea? Sounds fine, simply unlikely for general people to do that.
+
+Wrapped it up!

+Hug Reports 6:10
+@andon - 7:47 not related to CircuitPython, but @Greys has been helping a lot of people in Discord. And as always, a group hug because you all are awesome
+8:25 @brentr - Scott for Blinka work, and the CP team for pushing towards that 3.0 goal
+8:43 @cater - hug to Ladyada for coming back on an issue I posted that was ambiguous, and pointed out a direction to go, and hug to @Radomir for reviewing the lib. @Dan Halbert for helping out on 4 July with Code.org firmata stuff.
+9:35 @cgrover - Hugs to the CPy team for the thoroughness of the ReadTheDocs collection. Been using it a lot lately! Big thanks to @JohnPark and @oldcrow for musical synth advice, guidance, and examples. JP’s Trellis synth project was the tipping point that started me on my current tangent. OldCrow’s brilliant Modular Playground design broke through a couple of conceptual barriers as I tried to learn about analog trigger and control voltages.
+11:32 @Dan Halbert - thanks to ladyada and Mike for doing some final testing on the Crickit library
+12:02 @dastels - nothing too specific, just a general hug report, especially for the 3.0 team.
+12:27 @jerryn - group hug this week, good work all around. Special appreciation for the Blinka work
+12:45 @kattni - @JohnPark for providing me with a wave file to use with a guide, and help with wiring up and giving more detail on potentiometers. @sommersoft for helping out on Discord this weekend.
+@MikeBarela - lurking mostly
+14:13 @oldcrow - probably lurking
+14:27 @Radomir - hug for Construc for diving into CP and learning programming, really impressed with the nRF work to Jerry and Arturo
+15:13 @sdw_nj - group hug plus kudos for adding Android support to Chrome OS and the creators of no-root-linux-on-android apps
+15:33 @sommersoft - arturo and hathach for the flurry of nRF work. Mrmcwethy for diving into PyPi. Group hug for any I’ve missed.
+@tannewt 7:00
+Arturo for nrf PRs
+@sommersoft for modding discord
+@kattni for notetaking
+@Roy - group hug
+@arturo - hugs all around, especially to hathach for working on the nRF bootloader
+@threebits - lurking, first meeting!
+
+Status Update 16:00
+21:45 @andon - Status update: Preparing for BronyCon in a few weeks, prepping up DigiBadges. I have 30-ish 328Ps to solder, 38 1.8" TFTs to solder, and 36 buttons to replace. And then I have to upload the programming for 50 of them. It'll give me about 75 to sell at the convention. And then I have an EL Wire project I'm working on, too, but that's a "Secret Project" with an artist friend of mine, so no leeks (yet).
+22:24 @brentr - Finishing IO stuff, doing CP. Blinka IO examples, will be out later this week, updating io basic guides to work with new API. Added in time feeds. Any other ideas for topics or enhancements to IO, let Brent know, he’ll get it to the team.
+23:46 @cater - this ADS1x15 issue came up in Arduino first, conversion values off. Timing issue. Looked at CP lib, same issue exists there, posted issue for it, Ladyada directed which way to go, converts from delay to polling. New PR is put in place to do that. Looking at the current state - we’re close on getting it merged. Talk about this in the weeds.
+25:14 @cgrover - Current: Finished the Blues Playground Learning Guide (originally in 2.3.1, converted to 3.0.0 -- works great!). The two versions of the CPy-powered DSP musical synth (Feather M0 Express and Trinket M0) are working with MIDI and now include modular-synth CV/Gate inputs and outputs. (See/hear earlier video post.) These will act as gateways into the analog modular synthesizer world for me, one that has beckoned to me for many, many years.
+Next: Enclosure and rack -ize the DSP synths and start buying some foundational modular synth gear. Another expensive hobby to add to the list. Wrap up the Lissajous galvanometer project. Also on the list is a heirloom Black Forest cuckoo clock upgrade (CPy and Feather M4 -- maybe Crickit -- operating the original whistles and gong) and a CV/Gate and MIDI-compatible Trellis + rotary encoder bank (CPy and ItsyBitsy M4).
+Interrupters: yardwork, eating, sleeping, yardwork.
+27:54 @Dan Halbert - Earlier last week, working on the last bugs out of the Crickit lib. Pin mapping issues, all the way down to the seesaw code, had to figure out how to make it work, all fixed up and tested by Mike and Ladyada. Learn guides updated with it. That’s done. Issues with Windows 7 drivers package didn’t include Itsy M4 etc, working on that, errors with web usb, or installer complaining about failed device, driver is out for testing. Going to start ernest on nRF52, first thing is to get travis builds working. And made a learn guide about a night light. Out of a Gemma, using while True: do nothing, 1 minute night light. 3.0 final release in the weeds.
+30:25 @dastels - Mentioned last time that there was a book in the planning stage in CP. Has been called off, BlitzCityDIY and dastels both got busier with work. Now writing guides full time for Adafruit! Now discussing doing it as a series of guides. More material beyond the beginner level that should be published, going to work on that. In guides, using CP as much as possible.
+32:42 @jerryn - very exciting non-CP stuff. Got to dig a new hole for an outhouse! As far as CP, got around to updating the RFM69 driver to fix known bug and clean up other things. Took SPG30 gas sensor and installed it next to the cat’s litter box to see if it will give warning about the state of the litter box - to see how it works out. In the weeds - recent nRF52 questions.
+34:26 @kattni - Mirrored all of the Welcome and Essentials into Itsy M4 guide, after testing all the code in the essentials guide. Updated upcoming Feather M4 guide with Welcome/Essentials. Deployed the CoC to Discord. Now running Feather M4 through the Essentials guide code and cleaning up the wording in the guide where needed, still need to do new wiring diagrams for the Itsy and Feather M4 boards. Audio Out page for essentials guide: code done, page started, wiring diagrams.
+@MikeBarela - lurking mostly
+@oldcrow - lurking
+@Radomir - nothing to report.
+37:33 @sdw_nj - Missed last week, realised haven’t given a status update! Uflash leave to flash to microbit, and make separate command to flash, thought it needed separate py file, noticed the command setting and entry point settings, means probably could have been not a separate file. Called it hexify. Two issues, one, realised after that someone else’s PR, that had separate file, ntoll wanted a single file. One function is called hexlify. Running linux on Android on ChromeOS. Put it all into one file, and separate command was called py2hex. Finally done unless issues found! Uflash for Microbit. https://github.com/ScottDWebster/uflash/releases
+41:05 @sommersoft -
+FrequencyIn Module: still no real fix to M4 readings. Refactored the "fail gracefully" code to not rely on calling for the value. That approach works for a blocking loop, but would lead to lockup otherwise. New approach turns off capture in the interrupt handler, but doesn't raise the exception until the value is requested.
+Little Leslie amp: no movement.
+General: waited a week or so for DigiKey to get the nRF52840DK back in stock; they're now scheduled to restock at the end of the month. :sadface: Broke down and got one from Mouser, plus a Microchip MGC3030 gesture controller sensor to play with in the future. Gotta keep the stable ready for the chance that I ever finish anything. :D
+CoC In Libraries: git patch/am is a possible route. Still looking into how to further automate, but might just hand jam it locally.
+@tannewt 16:26
+Released 3.0.0-rc.1
+Testing nrf
+Fixed svd for nrf
+Uf2 in python3
+20:15 @Roy - no progress last week
+@arturo - working on nRF as usual, want to do #994 and #995 this week
+@jepler - @tannewt probably won't be around for the meeting today, but I just want to report that pfalcon made major progress on the uzlib crash fixes this weekend, reworking my proposed changes for minimum code size impact. Once the fixes make it to his master branch I'll make a PR to update circuitpython to use the fixed version. Let me know if you want that in 3.0, otherwise I'll target master only.
+@ntoll - Hi folks, Mu 1.0.0-beta.17 is out.... details here: https://madewith.mu/mu/releases/2018/07/09/beta-17.html (all feedback most welcome!)

+Hug Reports 6:41
+@brentr -10:49
+hug report to scott - pypi and jerryn/dastels for finding issues with AIO Python library
+@cater 11:20- basic group hug, of course. Hug to deshipu for reviewing. Kattni for double review and merge. Happy late birthday to Scott!
+@CGrover 12:05 -
+Hugs to the CPy team for 3.0.0! Upgraded about a half-dozen projects without any issues so far. Nicely done! Hugs to the ADABOX team for an awesome and action-packed 008. JP’s unboxing video was very well done, professional and engaging. Special thanks to Ladyada for sharing her engineering thought processes and philosophical approach.
+@Dan Halbert 12:37 -
+hugs to jerry, kattni et al who found the gpio pull issue at the last minute last week
+hugs to thach for doing massive nrf merge to master
+Hugs to arturo for all the nRF work.
+@dastels 13:28 - group hug to everyone. Specifically to the 3.0 team, been really enjoying it on the M4 boards, pretty awesome.
+@Dave 13:57 - congrats on 3.0, I have a slight chance to look at it, in the middle of emergency massive data center moves because one shut down, still in another window, mostly a fly on the wall. And happy birthday Scott.
+@jepler - lurking today
+@jerryn 18:18 - Happy birthday Scott! Repeat hugs to arturo and hathach for the nrf work. To Adafruit for the crickits, really having fun with it.
+@kattni 19:00
+Carter and Radomir for all the help troubleshooting my Odroid-go. Phil M for letting me talk out some code issues I was having with a new lib.
+@MikeBarela 19:42 - happy birthday! Hug to Brent, just going over Adafruit IO guide with Arduino, been working really hard at AIO. Hug to Dan, we were going over Crickit and Feather and use of NeoPixel is different than with CPX, new guide coming out on making NeoPixels light up with Crickit boards. Group hug to community - Python on Microcontrollers newsletter, increased 12%.
+@nis 22:39 -

+@three-bits and @larryfast for looking at and bringing some documentation issues up. @HappyDay for their continued push on getting SAMD sleep working. @Dan Halbert and @tannewt for keeping up with the forums; I keep meaning to check more. Group hugz beyond all that!
+
+Non-CP hug to the makers of Aloe Vera gel. Beaches have a knack for making life colorful, and slightly painful.
+@tannewt 6:41
+@jerryn for the PR and review ping.
+@arturo and @hathach for nrf. @jerryn for testing
+@Andon 9:06
+Hug Report: Group Hug as always. Lady Ada and John Park for the fun unboxing (Funboxing?) of Adabox 008. JP did a great presentation, and it was great to be able to chat with Lady Ada about things, both relevant to the box and otherwise.
+@hukuzatuna 9|35
+Hugs to everyone for working so hard all the time.
+@threebits - lurking today
+I guess this would be a group hug for everyone for keeping their eyes on the 'Low floor' part of an educational project which has the potential to be low floor, high ceiling. It is really easy for developers to get wrapped up in the high ceiling stuff which is much more fun
+
+Status Updates 24:54
+@brentr 28:55 - past week, thanks to Scott for helping me put AdafruitIO on version 2 on PyPi. Not working on 3.5, which is what ships on RPi, trying to figure out issue. This upcoming week, depending on the speed of getting it out, two guides on digital output and input. Working on Analog in and analog out, PWM and servo. Big thank you for Jerry for finding issues.
+@cater 30:11 - the ADS1x15 stuff that was done with the polling loop, simple changed to time.sleep. Able to have time to spend on HTK1633 stuff, now we have support for bar graph displays and a big display. PRs are in and good to go. Need to update a guide, add in updates. Repo is more or less done for now.
+@ntoll 32:25 - https://madewith.mu/mu/releases/2018/07/16/release_candidate-1.html Mu 1.0.0rc1 is out! Final 1.0 will be out on Friday. - Here’s hoping GitHub doesn’t go down in the middle of the release process again… :)
+@CGrover 33:19 - Other than converting a few existing projects, no new CPy work this past week – still working on PCBs and front panel designs for three Eurorack synth projects and learning about the key features of _Ki_Cad. As a result, next week will involve uploading gerbers to OSH Park and ordering a stock of newly filled plastic bags from DigiKey.
+@Dan Halbert 34:18 - released 3.0 last monday night, thanks to everyone. Since then, been working on some port things like a newer version of the Windows 7 drivers, and merging in recent changes from MicroPython into the master branch of CircuitPython. And a lot of misc. Hope to finish that up, and then get back into nRF52.
+@dastels 35:53 - been working on a few things, most applicably here, the book we decided not to do and take the content ideas and do them as guides, started in that. First one rolled out late last week. They’re to help people who have started programming in general in CircuitPython and go through the beginner phase, and they’re at the stage where they can write something more elaborate, with the M4 and 3.0, this series of guides the goal is to introduce them to Python’s and CP’s capabilities that are beyond what you can fit on the Trinket or M0 boards. That’s started. Started to play around with a project for the new EInk display CP based.
+@Dave - lurking for status.
+@jepler - lurking
+@jerryn 37:53 - lots of different stuff going on, nrf52 earlier in the week got DK working. Got the new dongle boards, looking forward to those coming online. Got the STMP and RFM69 updates done. Need to make releases for those. Playing a lot with Blinka, updating all RPis from Py 3.5 to 3.6. Need to compile but is working. Struggling with and playing with NeoPixel brightness with seesaw. With Feather Crickit board. Brightness can’t be globally updated. Brightness for in the weeds. Crickit questions in the weeds.
+@kattni 40:01
+Updated essentials guide for M4, everything is set there - code, text, wiring diagrams. Updated CoC in cookiecutter. Started lib process for EPD library - worked with Dean to help with the linting process. Started work on the library for Pixie LEDs, had to change the fill function to make it work. Started looking into I2S and PDMin for a guide update and new guide.
+Need to add the Essentials guide update to the newsletter. Finish the Pixie library, get it all setup in GitHub, and get it to Limor for testing. Next is adding CircuitPython to the I2S guide. Then get the EPD repo into Travis and RTD once Dean’s set with that.
+Thank you sommersoft for getting automation for the CoC (and any other changes) to all the current libs.
+@MikeBarela 43:38 - More guides coming out. Keep an eye out, we publish them on social media and blog, and again we’re aiming at the community. Hopefully if someone says “I don’t know where the SPI pins are”, we’ll have the guides be a little more helpful to find the features you want to find. Suggestions welcome, and keep an eye out. And thank you everyone for jumping in and doing PRs and looking over the code, because that’s what helps generate better code for everyone else.
+@nis 44:42 - looking at Seesaw, thinking about compiling a simple text interpreter based on that codebase, smaller than CP codebase, doing a project outside the Arduino compiler.
+@Noe 46:11 - 3D printing and testing of different mounts for Crickit boards, currently liking little adapter for lego bricks. Added more CAD files to GitHub, step files for various parts, can do a fork to contribute. If anyone has any parts that they need modeled, let me know, there’s probably a way to request it in GitHub, create an issue.
+-More 3d printed mounts for CRICKIT including special bits for LEGO bricks.
+-Video about the things going live on Wednesday.
+-More CAD files added to GitHub https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CAD_Parts
+-Next week working on gear mechanisms using crickit.
+@oldcrow - lurking
+@Radomir 47:38 -
+I prepared the prototypes for the CircuitPython badge to pass them on to the
+PyCon.UK organizers next week at Europython, so that they can give them to
+people interested in testing and developing for them. We decided we will
+postpone their use on the conference to the next year.
+This weekend I realized a way to make a minimal version of a standalone device
+compatible the PewPew Featherwing, with just 4 components -- that will be cheap
+enough to use in game-making workshops. PCBs are on order. I will need to write
+a C module for CircuitPython similar to the gamepad module for driving a LED
+matrix directly with the GPIO pins. (Project logs at https://hackaday.io/project/159733)
+@sdw_nj - lurking today
+@sommersoft 48:00 -
+FrequencyIn Module: dormant this past week.
+Little Leslie amp: still no movement, beyond random thoughts.
+Adabot Library Patching: working script has been PR'd. Could definitely benefit from further testing before it gets used on the live repos.
+@tannewt 25:21 -
+https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_CircuitPlayground/issues/37
+Working on dynamic heap allocation and it unlocks usb and main filename.
+Out Wednesday - Sunday in Michigan
+@Andon 28:08 -
+Status Update: I soldered so many TFTs. They are annoying because so few of them sit perfectly on the first try. I have 25ish battery packs to solder on, then I have to hot glue them in place, then I can put the actual programming on them and call them done!
+@hukuzatuna - no status update
+@threebits - I think that I will look at the ReadTheDocs documentation and try to increase new user navigability.
+
+Discussion (in the weeds) 49:43
+3.0.0 debrief/process review 52:03
+Thanks to everyone!
+We need to continue to bring people into the process.
+3.0 took longer than we would have liked, but we were waiting on a hardware cycle as well.
+For 4.0, would like to be further ahead of the hardware. Focus on adding support for that.
+Liked the way that we structured the milestones: alpha, beta, RC phases. There was a mismatch and stability and what we were calling it, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. The stabilisation process went quickly because we had stayed stable.
+Broken out 4.0 into the same phases.
+Thanks to jepler for adding ESP8266 to travis, and having that in is preventing breaking.
+Jerry: Brightness and Crickit questions. 1:10:13

+Hug Reports 6:44
+"Three-bits" 8:24 - Thanks to everyone who is helping to reduce the barriers which slow or prevent a new user from getting their first project up and running.
+@brentr 8:50 - Hug report to Cater for helping me with ADC libraries the past week and putting up with me going through iterations of it.
+@cater 9:13 - Welcome back and group hug
+@Dan Halbert 9:22 - Welcome back and I missed wishing Scott happy birthday. And thanks this week to arturo for continuing a lot of nRF work. New @daguitarguy found the bug in 3.0.
+@jerryn 10:03 - group hug to everyone for week of great progress, and sommersoft for great work supporting in Discord in Forum.
+@josh - Hug report this week to those who have been contributing to all the Circuit Python docs as they have come in very handy this week whilst doing work on EduBlocks for CircuitPython!
+@kattni 10:59 -
+Dan for helping with I2S.
+Carter and Brent for proofing guide pages for me.
+Phil M for helping with testing all my wiring diagrams and guide instructions.
+Roy, Dan, Phil for helping me sort things with the upcoming tutorial I’m presenting at PyOhio.
+@sommersoft11:46 - @jerryn, @nis, @BravoDelta, @Radomir, and @cater (and anyone I missed) for the support they provided this week; it was busy on that front. Congrats to @HappyDay for getting sleep working, and @hopkapi for getting a Python library ported over. And, previous_hugs += group_hug.
+@tannewt - Group hug because I’ve been out since Wed. visiting family and Kattni. Getting caught up, and just saw everyone being super welcoming, a lot of new folks came in, and that’s really great.
+@jepler, @dastels, @MikeBarela, @nis - lurking today!
+@cgrover - general group hug
+Status Updates 12:57
+“Three-bits" 15:23 - I spent most of this working on rosie-ci. I got a free Amazon S3 account so I can emulate the entire production system. After a fair bit of hacking, I got a local instance running to the point where it was downloading the binaries but it would not actually run the tests. My goal for the coming week will be to add more verbose debug statements with time stamps so I can get a better Idea of when things are happen and why it is no completing for me.
+@brentr 16:19 - This past week: that’s the PR if anyone wants to do the code review. New API that’s more pin based than channel based.
+https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_MCP3xxx/pull/1
+
+@cater 18:05 - nothing specific to report on, generally been hanging out. What Brent just mentioned is interesting, once that’s all wrapped up, want to take a look at it and change the rest to match. Looking back on old code, ew. I can do better :)
+@cgrover 19:26 - Wrapped up CPy FeatherM4Express Eurorack synth design. Gerbers are now parked on OSH Park but waiting for physical components to arrive to double-check mechanical fit. Designed a simple rack power distribution module yesterday. Swiss-Army sequencer design in the formative phase. Front panel design to commence this evening. Will be trying a new technique for full-color panel graphics. If it works, I’ll let all y’all know. Oh yeah, and still clearing brush and landscaping despite the blistering sun – will these yard projects ever end?
+@Dan Halbert 21:00 - Still finishing up merge from MicroPython. It’s complicated. Making sure it runs on Atmel and nRF, issues with ESP. Submit PR or hand out test uf2s. Looked into the slow import bug, have a fix, Scott and look at that too. Made issues for all of the nRF things that need to be implemented. Finishing up merge this week, and utility tasks like getting bootloader repo into Travis, getting nRFutil into PyPi.
+@jerryn 23:04 - AM2320 sensor on nRF. Everything is working the way it’s designed, but sensor has weird wakeup system that isn’t compatible. Works on atmel boards because they retry connection. Arturo is fixing. Upgrading RPis and linux machine to Python 3.6 to fix other issues. Saw in notes that TMP lib is still template, have working version, need to get it going.
+@Josh 25:17 - Work this week has been building EduBlocks for CircuitPython and getting more blocks in there as well as getting the Block transparency slider working that me and @tannewt talked about at PyCon where you can drag block or just drag text. I've also been doing my talk for EuroPython which is on Friday in Scotland which I'll talk about EduBlocks on Raspberry Pi and micro:bit as well as an update on CircuitPython! Also been working on micro:mag (https://micromag.cc/) Issue 2 which is the micro:bit magazine, lots of micropython stuff in there which is exciting!
+@kattni 26:34 -
+UDA1334 and MAX98357 I2S CircuitPython guide updates.
+EPD library set to go and published (though the meeting notes say that a couple of things are not right)
+Pixie library set to go and published. Updated Pixie guide with CircuitPython page.
+Working on new CPX IR communication guide for CPX to CPX.
+Spent the weekend working on getting my tutorial ready for PyOhio coming up next weekend, including flashing and setting up 40 Circuit Playground Expresses, working on slides, and creating a handout for running an Open Spaces during the conference.
+@sommersoft 28:28 - FrequencyIn Module: spent the week playing with DFLL on the M4 to try and fix or verify my assumption on inaccuracies. Thanks to that, and finally stumbling on to the variability listed in a datasheet table for DFLL Open Loop, I'm 99.2% sure that is the culprit. As Dan pointed out to me yesterday, Closed Loop is inoperative from the factory. So I've started working on using the FREQM peripheral to try and measure the clock's actual frequency (internal use only, not brought out to the Python layer). Will probably still switch back to getting the TC.COUNT approach to work; though the math may still be adversely affected by the clock skew.
+Adabot Library Patching: requested changes made; PR pending merge.
+@tannewt - the last week was pretty easy because I was out Wed-Sun. Had intended on doing heap stuff, but got distracted by Bluetooth APIs. Came up with a more pythonic API and looking for feedback on that: https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/issues/586#issuecomment-405794592
+Will ping arturo on that. Will finish the heap stuff.
+Discussion (in the weeds) 30:31
+Pylint 2.0.0 31:00
+34:20 nRF52
+38:22 oo python - what is the pythonic way of future proofing your call to a super class
+42:36 make it plot guide!

+Hug reports 6:30
+9:05 @brennan - Some folks have reviewed PRs lately, appreciate that effort.
+9:38 @cater - Group hug!
+9:46 @cgrover - Group hug to the team. Special thanks to Kattni for her exceptional rotary encoder guide – found it just in time for a project that was stalled looking for just the right input device. Clear, concise, easy to read!
+Oh, and to the HVAC tech who arrived just in time to replace the outside compressor before the worst of the heat wave. He not only dressed every wire with cable ties, he also took the time to teach me how to remove and recharge the refrigerant – at no extra cost. Free training!
+10:31 @DanHalbert - Echo Scott’s exhaustive list of hugs. Thanks to Jerry who did some really significant testing on ESP nRF testing on builds from the merge and found nothing major at the moment - made me feel a lot better!
+11:14 @jerryn - Thanks and congrats to Dan for epic merge. Special thanks to hathach for taking time to walk through and clarify a lot of bootloader nRF stuff. Congrats Kattni on PyOhio
+11:51 @kattni -
+PT and @adafruit for sponsoring my tutorial at PyOhio - providing Circuit Playground Expresses for all my attendees
+@CraigMaloney and @waldo for helping out with the tutorial
+@Roy, @hukuzatuna, @DanHalbert, @tannewt for support leading up to the conference this weekend
+Group hug for the community for being amazing
+12:41 @makdaam
+@deshipu for organizing the Europython sprint and pulling me in
+@jerryn and @DanHalbert for helping out during the first steps in developing circuitpython
+@tannewt for the code review
+@MikeBarela - lurking
+13:20 @nis - Hug to Jerry for couple different things, especially the a0a1s2 thing with CPX. Especially to Dan for pointing out Atmel Start to HappyDay - put 20 hours into it this week.
+14:20 @Roy - Group hug to everyone. Good to be back.
+6:51 @tannewt
+@dan halbert for micropython merge
+@kattni for pyohio talks

+17:36 @brennen -
+Some work on getting libs into PyPI; turning that over to @kattni
+docs & testing for libs on raspi
+18:46 @cater - nothing much new to report in CP stuff. Guide out last week with CP code in it though! Treasure hunt. More of a user last week than a developer. https://learn.adafruit.com/circuit-playground-treasure-hunt/circuitpython-treasure-hunt
+19:45 @cgrover - Put software development on hold (again) this week in order to complete a redesign of the Crunchable Synth PCB platform due to some mechanical issues with TS and TRS jacks. It’s tough to find vertical PCB-mounted TS and TRS jacks with the same height dimension. Alas. Using the experience to continue to fine-tune my KeyCad (sic) skills.
+Led an SMD hot-air soldering/rework workshop at the local makerspace last week. Was surprised to see the interest level. Although all attendees have hand-soldered SMD components in their projects, none had made the next step to hot-air soldering. Lots of oohs and ahhs when the solder paste flashed and components aligned themselves.
+This week’s work will be sponsored by CircuitPython and Ancestry.com. The synth code and associated library should be done by Thursday. Need to put on blinders after that and wrap up the ancestor search so that I can stop paying the subscription fee. I now know where we came from and was able to dispel a couple of fantastic stretched stories that usually make the rounds (and are amplified) during the family reunion.
+21:24 @DanHalbert - Finished this merge which took 3 weeks. Fixed windows drivers issues, fixing new issue which may have started with update to Windows, with Arduino, makes it so you can’t see CPLAYBOOT, have a fix for that. Starting to work on the nRF52 stuff, mostly trying to understand what’s going on. Couple of outstanding bugs, long-lived dictionary issue - really need to fix that.
+23:02 @jerryn - week flew by, not sure what I did. A lot of non-CP stuff, raspi stuff. Ubuntu upgraded to 18.04 can do direct migration from 16.04, which is nice, nothing broke. Played a lot with nRF stuff after coaching from @hathach. Managed to get ahold of espruino board, having a blast with that - cute little device. Struggling all morning with new TFT display, thoroughly confused, any pointers would be helpful.
+26:51 @kattni -
+Finished up a couple of guides with IR.
+Zombie game in CP with CPX and IR.
+Found a bug in stepper motor code - need to file an issue on that, but first figure out what layer the bug is inhabiting. Found using the FeatherWing library.
+Troubleshooting MakeCode version of one of the IR guides.
+Now going to take on getting the rest of the libs into PyPi.
+PyOhio this past weekend, tutorial went well, everyone seemed to have a lot of fun, received a lot of positive feedback afterwards. A lot of people were super excited, some people who couldn’t make the tutorial have already ordered CPXs to follow along later.
+30:06 @makdaam - Don’t have much. Spent last week on EuroPython. Was fun, there are already streams uploaded. Open Space about education and embedded python, one about games and people who have made games, and a sprint about contributing. https://www.youtube.com/user/PythonItalia/videos
+31:50 @nis - progress:
+Silabs CP2104 USB <==> UART gateway works nice with SAMD51 TX/RX UART pair!
+See: PiUART or the breakout (both from Adafruit).
+issue:
+SAMD51 difficulties w/ Atmel Start
+https://github.com/wa1tnr/sandboxx/blob/master/AtmelStart.d/cp_meeting_SAMD51_atmel_start.txt
+Working on SAMD51 with Atmel Start. GPIO toggle is inoperative - cannot seem to blink D13 (PA23) for the Adafruit Feather M4 Express target board (which runs Arduino IDE code just fine).
+Notes per the above 'sandboxx' repository on github.com.
+Using ORIGIN 0x4000 (not 0x2000 like on SAMD21). SAMD21 GPIO in Atmel Start working just fine.
+Target MCU is SAMD51J19A - Feather M4 Express.
+follow-up code:
+$ git clone https://github.com/wa1tnr/sandboxx.git
+35:45 @Roy - Nothing much to update, catching up with what’s been going on the past few weeks. Hoping to hop back into working on LEDs.
+15:10 @tannewt
+PR out for memory changes but needs more memory: https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/pull/1057
+Most of the way into i18n and string compression. https://github.com/tannewt/circuitpython/tree/i18n
+Next is graphics!
+36:00 @dakotah.redstone - group hug, new to the community!
+
+Discussion (in the weeds) 36:47
+37:25 Motor bug
+49:55 FeatherWing library
+52:25 PR reviews! Everyone can help!

+Hug reports 5:23
+8:25 @brennen - @kattni for massive amounts of pypi software bureaucracy
+8:44 @cater - Group hug!
+8:51 @cgrover - Group hug! Really enjoying and benefiting from Discord community
+9:05 @dakotah.redstone - General group hug for all the work that they’re doing on all these projects just inspiring me to get learning and contribute.
+9:36 @danhalbert - thanks to jerry again for finding bugs where we thought there were none. Thanks to Scott for doing all the code restructuring and refactoring. Thanks to Jepler for finding the long-lived bug. And thanks to Kattni for doing this incredible job of plowing through dozens of libs to get them into pypi.
+10:33 @deshipu - Group hug for everyone. Thanks for releasing 3.0 and 3.0.1 soon
+11:07 @kattni
+Brennen for all the tandem PyPi work - reviews and merges on SO MANY pull requests.
+Scott and Brennen for getting me spun up on PyPi.
+11:43 @mikebarela - @Kattni and @Brennen who blew up my email this weekend, have a tablet off to the side and it was going bing bing bing. The hard work behind the sound effects was awesome. Great kudos. Dan’s been also working hard, and Scott. Community’s been really pitching in finding things. We love PRs. Thanks to those on chat and those listening, very important part of what we do.
+13:19 @Roy - Group hug. To everyone for continuing to do a great job and being patient while I disappeared for a month. It was very easy to merge master into my work and continue working.
+@sdw_nj - lurking today!
+14:06 @sommersoft - Group hug, I’ve vacationed more than anticipated this week.
+5:42 @tannewt
+@kattni and @brennen for rocking pypi work
+Owen for first learn code update with AudioOut fix
+Jerry for TMP007 PR
+Notro, jerry and dan for stack size tweaks
+7:11 @jerryn: Thanks to Scott for reviewing the tmp007 PR. Group hug to all.
+7:21 @dfarning (threebits): Special thanks to Dan for rebasing off the latest upstream micropython. That is a thankless task that requires great patience.
+7:59 @hukuzatuna - listening only today! Hugs to @kattni for blasting out so many library fixes over the weekend!!!
+
+
+Status Update 15:11
+20:32 @brennen -
+review of pypi pull requests
+ongoing testing and documentation of libraries on raspberry pi
+21:38 @cater - nothing new, the one thing I would start working on, lost track of where brent was on mcp ADC. Still on hold for that.
+22:22 @cgrover - Been working on audio details for musical synth, working on CP I2S and DAC output ideas, ran into interesting issues with audioio and AudioOut. Doing testing on that. Having fun! Designed new eurorack PCBs, learning environment for synths and processors, getting help from oldcrow and johnpark. Waiting for vendors to deliver things. Plenty of yardwork. Continue ironing out CP audio output stuff - potential for smoothing out signals.
+@dakotah.redstone - Not “working” on anything, just playing.
+26:13 @danhalbert - Bunch of misc. A lot of work on Windows drivers in Arduino board support pkgs, inadvertently making CPLAYBOOT not work. Utility from nordic for nRF chips, nrfutil - updated to Python3, released to PyPi, working to build self contained windows and mac executables. nRF52832 it’s useful. Various nRF implementing a long list of issues. Upcoming vacation.
+28:07 @deshipu - Still working on the standalone version of pewpew console. https://hackaday.io/project/159733-pewpew-standalone/log/150445-complete-prototype
+Writing c lib for CP that will drive. Redesign PCB too slow to PWM, systick timer too slow. Plan is to use HW PWM on pins. Second thing, teleplexing switch between on and high or off and high, and haven’t looked into data sheet, but perhaps something like that is supported in PWM - sounds like a strange thing to have. Another thing, going to be superconference in LA for Hackaday io, and asked about PCB with CP I made some time ago, they may enter it.
+https://hackaday.io/project/159787-skull/log/150335-jolly-wrencher-redoux
+31:13 @jepler - lurking today.
+31:23 @kattni -
+PyPi. - made a massive spreadsheet to cover all the steps. Working through all of the libraries. About halfway done with getting PRs in for the initial setup, about ⅓ of the way done with the entire deployment workflow.
+Running into pylint errors that I’m disabling - making a note on these because these need to be refactored when they can be tested. (Need to go back and find the previous ones I did to note them)
+Work to add RTD to every guide at some point.
+34:01 @mikebarela - put a couple of things on Discord. We have python on microcontrollers newsletter - growth is double other newsletters, been popular, but trailing some because it was the last one introduced. Plug in! Spam free, never use your data for anything but sending you this newsletter once per week, check out adafruitdaily.com to signup. CircuitPython is on the Awesome list. The person running it has a ton going on, so we pitched in to help out with some PRs for their stuff. Most of my work is mostly tutorial related, most of the stuff we’re trying to write both in MakeCode and CircuitPython doing the same thing. If anyone is at beginner level, MakeCode. Want to go the Python route, CP is there. Make it a Keyboard and Make it a Mouse - shows how to do each thing very well. Keep an eye out on Adafruit Learn System for tutorials that may have code that will help you with specific things, or project specific stuff like IR stuff recently.
+40:35 @Roy - Resumed work on pixelbuf and rgb led classes. Implementing pure Python pixelbuf implementation. Realising a few questions like orders of dotstars that have rgb and brightness. Hoping to have pixelbuf in place soon, refactor to create NeoPixel 2 and DotStar 2, and use base rgb class.
+41:54 @sommersoft - Again, not much progress this week.
+Adabot Patches: Code of Conduct patch was successful on all library repos. The .travis.yml patch for pylint failed across the board. Realized the problem was the diff result during patch file creation. Basically it included a line that was unique in each library, which raised the "not applicable" flag. I've figured out how to make a patch file without the unique lines, and how to run the git am so that the error isn't flagged. Currently working on adding command line arguments to the adabot script so that any necessary flags can be sent through to the am command. Should have a PR in this week.
+FrequencyIn: Only took like 2 momentary stabs at correcting the FREQM interaction; nothing to report beyond that.
+15:55 @tannewt
+Got memory allocation changes in.
+Got build speed up by filtering qstr preprocessing
+Reduced the pin object size a bit by removing qstr reference and bit packing tcc.
+I18n almost out for review, top priority.
+Next, circle and text drawing
+String compression on hold. Keep it up my sleeve.
+19:33 @jerryn: finally got tmp007 driver submitted PR in review. Won't be able to test much for the next few weeks. Will concentrate on on reading/learning.
+19:53 @dfarning (threebits): Rosie status: Spent most of last week experimenting with development hardware and a Development environment. My current approach is to rewrite the logic of
+https://github.com/adafruit/rosie-ci using the structure and best practices of Miguel
+Grinberg's book at https://flaskbook.com/ . Learning git.
+@hukuzatuna - listening only today! No update
+
+Discussion (in the weeds) 43:12
+Library questions 44:21 - irremote and gps, do they need Adafruit-Blinka as a req. They do not.
+Roy and pixelbuf naming 48:01 -
+57:12 - deshipu and timers
+1:00:00 Jepler - I had an experience a couple weeks ago where on Metro M4 Express, the AnalogOut object would misbehave: the board would freeze when I tried to create a DAC for the A1 pin. This misbehavior would survive clicking the "reset" button, but would go away when I actually removed power from the whole board. What would NOT be reset by using the physical reset button? Only passives (some resistors) were connected to the A0/A1 pins at this time.
+1:01:55 Cater - curious what our current process for tracking drivers that need to be written or currently working on. Looking for TCA multiplexer? No lib that we know of. Make issue on CP repo, and then work from there.
+
+Wrap up!

+Hug Reports 7:44
+11:18 @brennen
+Kattni for extensive guide re-mangling, Fritzing, etc.
+18:05 @brentr - Group hug to everybody, especially larger hug to Kattni and Brennen for getting everything on PyPi, working on a guide that uses it and it works
+12:12 @cater - Standard group hug. One to @deshipu for idea on TCA multiplexer, make it worth writing a driver for it.
+12:53 @dakotah.redstone - no work, just play ;) but hugs all round, community is SO inspiring :O
+13:34 @deshipu - thanks to Scott for getting on right path with timers.
+13:53 @kattni
+Brennen for working on getting hardware tested on Raspberry Pi, helping out with everything PyPi
+@ladyada for getting some more hardware tested over the weekend
+@sommersoft for working on getting more patching capabilities into Adabot
+@tannewt for playing backup support through all of the PyPi stuff
+14:58 @MikeBarela - Team of Kattni and Brennen have been a blur of code in a good way my email shows all this work coming through on GitHub, also noticed that Ladyada put in some sweat and tears working on some issues too this weekend. Looking good as far as things shaping up. The new hat coming out will be really good stuff that the RPi just hasn’t had. Requires a lot of work on people’s part - Kattni and Brennen - to get all the pieces working together. Creating the atmosphere of It All Just Works™. Group hug for the hard work.
+@sdw_nj - lurking today.
+17:48 @sommersoft - Group hug this week!
+@tannewt 8:30
+Aaronaverill for helping others on the forums.
+@notro for the CircuitPython code browser. http://elixir.tronnes.org/circuitpython/latest/source
+@kattni and @brennan for pypi and raspberry pi work.
+Rvice for first time commit to fix TSL2591 with 100ms integration time.
+Carlos for spanish translation @carl0s
+@jerryn 11:07
+Group hug!
+Status Updates 18:44
+22:26 @brennen
+Testing libraries on the Raspberry Pi.
+23:12 @brentr - as of last friday, finished up all the CP ports for AdafruitIO guides. If you have Raspi, the AIO guides work with it. This week building environmental logger, everything, all over I2C, Arduino version and CP version.
+24:28 @cater - nothing super new, ordering up some of the TCA hardware. Got here Friday, didn’t play this weekend, start this week to make a first pass at CP driver for it. Forgot to thank Scott for jumping in on discussion for driver.
+26:34 @dakotah.redstone - still learning ( newb status )
+26:55 @deshipu - Got code for working with LED matrix, still have questions, have it working for regular matrix. Make educational device that lets you write simple games that would cost a couple of dollars. I will create some issues asking about ideas to make this do something in the background.
+28:50 @kattni
+PyPiland. All of the libraries but 1 are deployed to PyPi.
+Featherwing helper lib not in PyPi, library structure causing issues with Sphinx docs. Will circle back to getting this in eventually.
+Now we’re testing all the hardware - Brennen is on that (with help from Limor)
+Updating the guides to include Python usage. Updated 18 out of 87 so far.
+Adding the updated guides to the newsletter.
+Blogging every updated guide in batches of 5: 1 post so far.
+Filed an issue for libraries that have docs issues in CP repo. Will update as I continue to find them: https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/issues/1108
+Need to file an issue for libraries that have pylint: disable that should be refactored out when the lib can be tested. List compiled, issue not yet filed.
+Figuring out getting updated READMEs for Python libs that we’re deprecating pushed to PyPi on the first 6 that were already archived.
+Eventually will be archiving and deprecating all the Python libs.
+34:35 @MikeBarela - late hug report to Brent, wrapping up work on AIO guides. 3 things - how to use serial comm with CPX, not using the built in USB connection, guide for that this week. Guide for how to log data using CP and MakeCode sensor data directly to spreadsheet - using HID. Book has how to use SD card to log csv. Android phones logging directly to Google Sheets. Have a guide for Make it Switch, using external switches, pull ups and pull downs and so on, hopefully in the next week or two we’ll have enough time to review and get that going. Newsletter will be out tomorrow.
+@sdw_nj - lurking today.
+38:29 @sommersoft -
+Adabot Patching: finished adding the ability to pass command line arguments to the git calls. Then discovered that only certain git apply flags can be used with git am, so I added the option to force the use of git apply + git commit -a -m "patch message from patch file" to allow all flags. The main difference between git am and git apply is that am does a commit automatically and apply doesn't. Buuuut, turned out that using zero lines of context for the .travis.yml patch results in duplicated lines for the ones that are already updated (see below). Will work one more approach for the patch file (1 line of context), but may just have to cleanup after. I'm also going to work on the .pylint.rc patch that @kattni brought up. And, while typing this, I figure I can add some "test run" ability. #featurecreep

+All the internationalisation stuff is checked in.
+Revived my test gaming code, been working on it in June, 2 months old, rebased it on 4.0. At the time I was working on it, loading all the python code took 17 seconds. Someone else found the import bug - now takes 1.2 seconds. Porting Pico8 version of Celeste, they’ve ok’d open sourcing the port - working on that.
+Working on graphics this week. Building on the awesome work that @deshipu did with the stage stuff. Adding more shape rendering for upcoming product. Heads down on graphics this week, building out the stage stuff.
+Newsletter.
+21:38 @jerryn
+Should be back this weekend and will pick up on some testing, especially some of the Blinka modules. I did a quick test of the RFM9x and had to make a minor change to the rfm9x_simpletest.py to convert a string to bytestring for the .send() test. That is new with the latest Blinka update, but I have not had time to dig into it. Should be able to followup on that this weekend.

+* @ladyada for library tweaks
+26:14 @brentr - @kattni and Brennen, needed a sensor, was ready on PyPi
+14:38 @cater - group hug as always, @sommersoft/@tannewt for review. @kattni for helping with pylint thing
+@charlesburnaford - lurking
+11:25 @DanHalbert - Thanks to Brennen, Kattni and Ladyada for doing all the RPi stuff
+@hukuzatuna - lurking
+11:59 @jerryn - Group hug!
+12:14 @kattni
+* @brennen for keeping up with all the Raspberry Python stuff and for first library contribution
+* @ladyada for all the testing and library work for the Raspberry Python stuff
+* @tannewt for beings supportive through all the craziness
+14:07 @ladyada -
+* kattni & brennen for amazing break-neck speed raspberry pi testing and documentation. they have rocked it, kattni is a fritzing machine. she is HALF fritzing HALF human - terminator style
+* also brent wrote a great guide using the new circuitpython for raspi using a plethora of sensors - and they worked amazingly - so its all COming together
+* also scott and dan have happily reviewed my 2am PR's
+* Goooooo team!
+@mikebarela - Thanks Sommersoft for your work on GitHub this weekend
+13:13 @sommersoft -
+* @kattni & @brennan for pushing through on the PyPi stuff. @deshipu for [display and other] support on discord this week. @dglaude, @arofarn, @carlos, and @turbinenreiter for the translation work. Group hug to cover what my scrambled neurons may have missed!
+* Reiteration Hug: @tannewt & @Dan Halbert for always having time questions (status update related).
+7:55 @tannewt
+* @arofarn, @anton-2, and @dglaude for the French translation!
+* Everyone for helping through the early 4.x churn. It’ll be awesome.
+* @sommersoft for the persistence on FREQM and adabot patching.
+* @deshipu for helping me and TheGuyThatDoesStuff with display stuff.
+15:50 Status Updates
+18:51 @brennen
+* More library testing with pi
+* A few minor changes to libraries
+* Out the next couple of weeks
+* re: pypi, something i didn't mention under status updates is that we've got an ongoing process of deprecating older adafruit python libs in favor of the circuitpython versions as they come online. (we're pushing READMEs to pypi that mention the deprecation.)
+26:14 @brentr - finished up new guide on environmental sensor, goes over using adafruitio on Arduino and CircuitPython - the first guide with Arduino/CP and AIO. This week, IoT house project with CircuitPython.
+19:38 @cater - did the PR for the I2C multiplexer, got through one round of reviews on that. Also did some reading on calculating lux with tsl2591 light sensor, no good answer but added a lot to read in the issue.
+@charlesburnaford - lurking
+20:34 @DanHalbert - Was on vacation last week, before vacation started working on nRF port doing pin management, in the middle of this. Today going to try to fix a nasty UART bug which we tried to fix and haven’t yet fixed, and once we get that done, we’ll do the 3.0.1 release.
+21:46 @deshipu - nothing to report
+@hukuzatuna - lurking
+22:11 @jerryn - Spent last two weeks being “grandpa” -- slowly getting re-oriented. Did some quick tests of rfm9x under Blinka on RPi -- testing neopixel issue on M4 -- this week -- get back up to speed.
+23:26 @kattni
+* Finished up a ton of guides last week. And added to newsletter.
+* Leaving Thursday for holiday! Done after Tuesday.
+* List of things to do the next two days
+ * queue up all the blog posts that we can do right now
+ * Finish up I2C and repeated-start I2C guides
+@ladyada - update is just all the raspi python stuff
+@mikebarela - lurking
+24:47 @sommersoft -
+* Adabot Patching: PR is merged. Will run .pylintrc->ignore-modules=board patch tonight. Then will work out the pylint v1.9.2 patch(es). Also will add a dry-run option to patching; I'm getting tired of changing git repo sources to test patches.
+* FrequencyIn: Working just dandy; FREQM peripheral gets M4 as accurate as can be with the Open DFLL. For now, at least. Initial PRs for submodule updates are merged. Couple more things to tighten up, then the big PR will happen.
+* Library cookiecutter: updated with .travis.yml->pylint v1.9.2 and .pylintrc->ignore-modules=board.
+16:29 @tannewt
+* Was going to do graphics but wanted to unblock translations with string compression.
+* String compression is in and will be heads down on graphics this week. Want to seamlessly share the display between the supervisor and user code. Kinda like the status LED.
+28:05 Discussion (In the weeds)
+* Itsy bitsy m4 neopixel bug
+ * ItsyBitsy 5V pin/power issue still present.
+* 32:13 Cookiecutter PyPi process - Setup.py
+ * More of the setup process can be added to cookiecutter, need to determine how much of this can be added.
+ * Circle back when kattni is back
+* 34:37 Build question

+
+
+8:27 @brentru
+* @ladyada for assistance w/NeoPixels on Blinka
+* @kattni for PyPi testing and work - I’m still beyond happy I can work faster now with Blinka+IO
+8:53 @cater
+* Group hug
+* @ladyada PN532 NFC sensor
+
+
+
+
+
+
+9:24 @Dan Halbert
+* @kattni and @brennan huge amount of work on Pypi-ing and testing libraries
+* @hathach working on nRF52
+* @sommersoft FrequencyIn work
+* @notro Fixed control-C behavior on master
+* @jerryn and @tannewt NeoPixel timing fixes
+
+
+10:39 @deshipu
+* my heart goes to all the people who struggled with neopixels again
+
+
+11:18 @ladyada
+* mega hugs to sommersoft for being nrf52 buddy
+* also big round of applause for kattni & brennen who did 45 guides and tested/updated them for raspberry pi support. they are on well deserved break, and we'll be back to do the remaining sensors/devices. (but if people have requests i can probably do one or two, open up an issue on circuitpython)
+
+
+12:40 @Josh
+* Thanks to authors of the CPX guide, especially the CPy part.
+
+
+21:20 @MikeBarela
+* @brentru Adafruit I/O
+* @ladyada PyPi work
+
+
+13:26 @sommersoft
+* @jepler for running some tests on my PR. @jerryn for testing and troubleshooting the DHT-on-RPi PR. @ladyada for working on a learn guide for nRF bootloader install. Group hug to infinity and beyond!!
+
+
+14:18 Status Updates
+
+
+14:37 @tannewt
+* Released 3.0.1
+* Heads down on display support: https://github.com/tannewt/circuitpython/tree/hallowing
+
+
+16:22 @brentru
+* Working on the IO Home Series
+ * Cardboard houses for demoing
+ * #1: Temperature/Humid. + NeoPixels Ready for release, finishing it up
+ * Blinka + IO, oh yes!
+ * Home security system next
+ * Blinka + PiCam + IO + PIR Sensor + more!!
+
+
+17:57 @cater
+* I2C multiplexer driver
+* PN532 work, along with @ladyada; will clean up API a bit
+
+
+18:52 @Dan Halbert
+* Updating nRF52 pin definitions, and reworking pin definition file structure to mirror how we do it in atmel-samd/.
+
+
+19:45 @deshipu
+* The final prototype for PewPew Standalone is working and I have sent inquiries for quotes to the fabs to start the production soon. I also wrote a bouncing ball tutorial for it: https://pewpew.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorial.html
+
+
+20:20 @Josh
+* Continuing work on CPX EduBlocks editor
+* Many more blocks
+* Will share beta version soon
+
+
+21:03 @MikeBarela
+* Heating Pad and Peltier cooler via the Crickit.
+* Working on some other guides, some nice surprises
+* CircuitPython to MakeCode translator being worked on
+* Check the blog for writeups of new drivers every other day
+
+
+25:06 @sommersoft
+* **FrequencyIn**: PR is in. Worked one change already thanks to @jepler's testing (bail out of endless interrupt loop). Will continue to work on things as the review progresses.
+* **nRF DK**: Finally kicked the tires on it last night. Win10 + Vagrant is proving difficult for the bootloader. Will push on it a little more, but may proceed with using Segger Embedded Studio. I'll document & screen grab either/both for possible inclusion to ladyada's learn guide
+* **.pylintrclint**: patch successful, except for one outlier which has a PR in.
+
+33:50 @ladyada
+* PN532 driver is done, plz try it if you want RFID card support in circuitpython
+* im currently investigating libgiod for circuitpython support on Pi - if anyone is excited to help lemme know. @Josh suggests contacting @Gadgetoid from
+* and getting back to nrf52840 - i started a guide for building/burning: will publish once we have USB workin' so people can experiment
+* also did some crickit HAT testing, so far so good
+* micro:bit crickit is being manufactured today
+
+27:00 Discussion / In the Weeds
+@Josh A temporary domain name for EduBlocks CPX is here: http://adafruit.edublocks.org/ not finished/fully pushed to server yet.
+
+27:50 @cater
+* Best way to add new libraries to Adafruit bundle and community bundle? Use `git submodule add` is the best way. See the library guide: https://learn.adafruit.com/creating-and-sharing-a-circuitpython-library
+* Use semantic version x.x.x: https://semver.org/
+
+@Josh
+* People seen this? it's a camp badge powered by micropython/circuitpython (can't remember which) https://t.co/oQTrMSu5Mc

+6:50 Hug Reports
+
+
+7:24 @tannewt
+* @turbinenreiter for the German translation
+* @hathach, @arturo182 and @Dan Halbert for nrf work
+* @deshipu, @arturo182 and @notro for displayio PR feedback
+
+
+8:30 @Dan Halbert
+* @Arturo182 for detailed pull-request reviews and his contributions to nrf52
+* @hathach for continued nrf52 work; thanks especially for fixing serial REPL problem
+* @PaulKierstead for fixing UART.read() with no timeout.
+
+
+9:03 @brentru
+* @ladyada @Gadgetoid for work on the neopixel_write in blinka. It works and now I can have :blinky: neopixels for my pi projects!
+* @jerryn for finding an issue with the neopixel library at the same time as me, and helping get it fixed up!
+
+
+11:58 @sommersoft
+* @tannewt for the suggestions on my PR. @Josh for continuing work on EduBlocks and outreach. @cascade for Tagolog translation. @Group because awesome!
+
+
+10:10 @cgrover
+* Group hug today. Worked on a couple of CircuitPython projects in the past few weeks – it just works!
+
+
+11:30 @josh
+* Hug reports this week again to Circuit Playground guides. They've come in handy when finishing off EduBlocks and also writing samples to go into the editor. Also to Gadgetoid for doing his neopixel stuff because that has come in handy too.
+* @dhalbert for helping with his cpx not running
+
+
+10:30 @charlesburnaford
+* General hug report for everybody who works on the learn guides. Fab. for teaching people how to use circuit python!
+
+
+10:58 @jerryn:
+* Shoutout to @brentru and @ladyada for the neopixel stuff, @gadgetoid for getting it going to. @arturo, @hatach for NRF52 work.
+
+
+9:48 @cascade:
+* Special thanks to @tannewt for the review/support with the Tagalog translation.
+* Also, thanks to @jerryn @danhalbert @sommersoft for answering questions and general support.
+12:42 Status Updates
+
+
+13:04 @tannewt
+* Got displayio PR out and started responding to feedback. https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/pull/1152
+* Send out Grand Central board addition today or tomorrow.
+* Assembled py gameboy cartridge and will test some evening.
+* Hope to finish display PR soon and follow with version that supports ad hoc displays.
+
+
+15:52 @Dan Halbert
+* Large PR submitted to add new nrf52 boards, revise and clean up pin definitions, and restructure pin files on nrf52.
+* Continuing to add functionality to nrf port.
+
+
+16:50 @brentru
+* Finishing up IO: Home #2: Security
+ * Uses the Blinka `neopixel_write` library, added by ladyada!
+* Going to do some work on the Adafruit IO Python library later this week to include the new Group->Get() feature added by Adam - MQTT GROUPS!
+
+
+18:05 @cascade
+* Sorry listening while cooking lunch. Working on a new circuitpython board based on Trinket M0 with SPI flash and generally learning about how things work. Also planning to do the same with SAMD51 chip with a display.
+
+
+18:27 @cgrover
+* Recently worked on a collaborative project with @JohnPark to design a hybrid PCB (analog and digital) and code to read a Eurorack synth control voltage (CV) signal and display it on a 1930s-40s vintage analog RF meter in a very retro-cool case. The signal is processed by a Trinket M0 running CircuitPython that protects the meter by controlling range and skew. The Trinket’s DAC output drives the retro analog meter.
+* Working on a film miniature lighting animation controller for a local film group. The project involves an ItsyBitsy M4 Express with CircuitPython, a bunch of NeoPixels, and a panel full of knobs and switches.
+* I'm writing a learning guide about front panels. Stay tuned.
+
+
+20:15 @charlesburanford
+* Music project - digital zelda ocarina.
+ * Having issues getting a specific speed using Pi (blinka), may revert to a feather (m4/m0).
+
+
+22:25 @jerryn
+* Working on a new dog he adopted.
+
+
+23:00 @josh
+* This week i have been upgrading the repo on PixelZero https://github.com/AllAboutCode/pixelzero, which is my port of the circuitpython neopixel library based on RPI_WS2812x library for the Pi, I believe this is going into Blinka according to @brentr. Also http://adafruit.edublocks.org/ is basically done apart from I2C, been doing some outreach at the local Raspberry Jam with EduBlocks and circuitpython and lots of teachers are looking to use it when it's ready. Did a quick talk on the editor to: https://twitter.com/PrestonRJam/status/1036695503692591105 . If anyone one is going to the Blockly Summit in California in 2 weeks, it would be great to speak to you, as I'll be doing a talk on the past 2 years of EduBlocks and how I develop it.
+
+
+24:17 @sommersoft
+* **FrequencyIn**: 2nd "control" timer added, and working. Using DPLL1 @ 98 MHz as the timer source is working on M4. Still a fair amount of jitter on the higher-end readings that I need to work out; not sure if it's clock or timer related. Using XOSC32K; going to test with OSCULP32K tonight. Up next is DMAing the capture timer, to overcome the loss of capture interrupt. :dizzy_face:
+25:58 In the Weeds
+* 26:30 DMA capture info
+* 27:20 edublocks. http://adafruit.edublocks.org/ http://support.edublocks.org/
+* 29:02 Pulseio in blinka? Future addition on the roadmap?
+ * Maybe, ask ladyada
+* Since now using a second timer to "schedule" the value updates, the capture timer(s) doesn't set the interrupt on capture. However, all captures still set the INTFLAG, which causes the capture to not be recorded in to CC[n].
+* 32:29 What's the easiest way in CP to find out which peripherals are available/taken or when a pin is in use?
+ * If you’re able to grab the periph., you can always deinit and “give it back”
+ * Try to use it
+ * Kattni wrote some scripts to try all the spi/i2c busses

+* Group hug
+
+
+11:16 @jerryn
+* Group hug
+* @Dan adding PCA10059 dongle
+
+
+11:40 @sdw_nj
+* Group hug
+
+
+11:51 @sommersoft:
+* @"The nRF Crewe" (Dan, thach, Arturo, & Jerry) for continued work on that port. @tannewt for displayio foundation. Group hugus-maximus for any I'm missing!
+12:37 Status Updates
+
+
+13:11 @tannewt
+* Got displayio checked in.
+* Got grand central board definition checked in.
+* Library and adabot love on Friday. Wanted to get ImageLoad into bundle.
+* Next is breaking displayio out of board.
+
+
+16:07 @brennen
+* Just back from Burning Man, hitting the road again in a few days, catching up a bit.
+* Putting some libraries on PyPI, documentation on a project using LoRa + GPS + compass.
+
+
+16:53 @Dan Halbert
+* Many reviews, because so much code is going in
+* Pypi debugging
+* nRF52: new boards; pin definition cleanup; pin claiming
+* GPIO cleanup on nRF52
+* WIll continue to implement missing features for nRF52
+* 3.0.2 release: M4 Neopixel fix, maybe PWM bug fix, UART features and bug
+
+
+19:14 @deshipu
+* Busy at day job: no progress. Preparing for Maker Faire Zurich this week.
+
+
+19:49 @jerryn
+* Trying nrf52840 dongle
+* Trying to fix BLE scanning
+
+
+21:20 @Mike Barela
+* Mike’s new book on CPX is out: MakeCode, CircuitPython, and Arduino. E-book now and print version soon.
+* Will be at Maker Faire NYC
+
+
+25:12 @sdw_nj
+* I'm part of the micro:bit beta testing and I'm testing a new firmware and makecode & micropython editors that implement WebUSB to allow direct flashing to the micro:bit.
+
+
+25:45 @sommersoft
+* FrequencyIn: OSCULP32K as DPLL source in work for crytaless boards. Have to establish a GCLK since it can't be sourced directly like XOSC32K. Then I should be able to assess jitter cause, as mentioned last week. Still discussing TC register usage/DMA with @tannewt.
+* Going to update VEML6070 library to match the new VEML6075 library in usage/structure.
+
+
+27:00 In the weeds
+* 27:48 Nrf52 pin definitions - jerry & Dan
+ * Tips to not short out nrf dongle
+ * A number of nrf52 pins are designated as low freq only - this is because higher frequency might interfere with the RF pins (BLE, NFC). How serious a restriction this is isn’t clear.
+ * PCA10056 DK board has a 3V, not 3.3V regulator, so pin output voltages will be no higher than 3V (could be issue with, say NeoPixels).
+ * PCA10059 dongle is easy to fry - be careful not to short VDD to ground, accidentally bridge jumpers, etc.

+7:05 Hug reports
+9:44 @cater - group hug as always, and smattering of small hugs - sommersoft for reviews and merges, ladyada for testing and merging libs, scott for merges on LSM9DS01, and jerryn for a bunch of stuff posted this weekend and responding
+10:43 @cgrover - Group hug to the entire team, been lurking in Discord, amazed by rate and progress with new features.
+11:26 @charlesburnaford - general group hug for everyone, been listening to this and absorbing a lot of useful information. One to @kattni for all the things she does in the Learn area.
+@dakotah_redstone - lurking
+12:20 @Dan Halbert - Thanks for the people who helped with the 3.0.2, especially Jerry, and Paul Kirstad(spelling), and ladyada. Group hug to the community for the past year.
+12:58 @deshipu - thank you Dan for the fix for PWM, thank you arturo for all the nRF52 work, and thank you to Scott for working on the game API. Been advertising it a bit to bring in new people.
+13:56 @jerryn - Group hug and congrats on a year, shout out to Dan for nRF work and 3.0.2
+14:20 @kattni
+* Group hug to everyone for keeping everything amazing while I was gone. It’s super great to be able leave for so long and have people step up to fill in for all the community related stuff we usually do.
+* Hug to @tannewt and @Dan Halbert for all the support before my trip with getting everything set for me to leave, and taking care of the stuff for the upcoming NY trip while I was gone.
+* Hug to @tannewt for taking care of the updated guides for the newsletter while I was gone.
+* Hug to @MikeBarela for taking care of the blog posts for the PyPi work - those posts were huge and involved, and Mike got them all taken care of.
+* Thanks to everyone for making this year amazing!
+@MikeBarela - lurking
+16:00 @sdw_nj - Group hug and kudos to the teams developing the web-based editors for the Micro:bit for the new WebUSB support.
+16:20 @siddacious - To Kattni and Scott for going the extra mile for making the CP community especially welcoming and encouraging me to remain involved in any way I can. Also to CGrover for spending extra time helping me with some audio electronics questions
+16:53 @sommersoft -
+* @tannewt for the PR review. And a group hug!
+7:41 @tannewt
+* Aarondewindt for LSM9DS1 fix
+* ATMakers for the first PR!
+* Everyone for one year of weeklies!
+17:55 Status Updates
+22:00 @cater - Cornucopia of various small things: HTK a bunch of PRs and changes there, LSM updates. Copy/pasta stuff that is still an issue. Refactor of PN532 is finished today - testing putting stuff in separate files for efficiency, and added stuff to make it more CircuitPython-y. MPR121 found an old mention re: interface change, been discussing that - today was very active and has reached conclusion. Also playing with TCS RGB light sensor, there’s weirdness in the library, created issues for that.
+24:44 @cgrover - not a lot of CP work, working on song remake being produced overseas - long story! Just submitted the front panel design and Make Learning Guide. Analog meter fundamentals tutorial that may become a guide. Made quick enhancements to CircuitPython project last night, amazing that it’s so quick and easy to update. May have CP-ish stuff next week.
+26:47 @charlesburnaford - well I’ve got a small status report about electronic ocarina - breath control working. The next trick is to create the switch matrix so I can get the fingering fun and games working. That’s where I am, may need help getting the MIDI interface working, still having baudrate problem on RPi.
+27:53 @dakotah_redstone - (trying to climb out of the chaos, read Tollervey micropython book - “recommended”, building a parts storage cabinet out of baking pans and oak stair treads, working on design for synth feathers/piano style keys/midi solenoid drums)
+29:04 @Dan Halbert - As mentioned, I finished/released 3.0.2 w/ necessary fixes and UART enhancements. Next is to merge into master to add to 4.0a. nRF peripherals, dozen of those, churning that out, busio getting added, then adding more esoteric peripherals.
+29:58 @deshipu - I’ve been mostly working continuing to work on PewPew, and preparing for Zurich Maker Faire, controlling robot with PewPew. Didn’t have time to prep program. Also prepared stable version for gaming, need to release CP 3x version for microbit. Got some testing of physical design because always a bunch of kids playing and fighting for it, survived without any damage, so good news there!
+32:10 @jerryn - other than playing with nRF dongle, spent most of last several days putting together a little robotic arm kit, not circuitpython, but using M0 board and Crickit to run it. Switching to another system with 4 servos, they aren’t very good that came with the kit. Another robotic arm that uses 6 DC motors, hooking up crickit and motor shield, all using Adafruit IO.
+33:37 @kattni
+* Been in Italy for the last 3.5 weeks, so I haven’t gotten anything done!
+* Getting spun up again, so the next few days are basic catch-up
+* Plan is to start getting back into PyPi and library work
+* Will be talking to Carter about the lib work happening.
+* Leaving Thursday for NY so we’ll be in person to help get back into everything
+* This weekend we’ll be at Maker Faire!
+* Week from Thursday is Open Hardware Summit!
+@mikebarela - MakerFaire Sunday talk at noon Sunday in Zone 3 Digikey., Updates to the Intro to Crickit and Make It Move guides to including CircuitPython & MakeCode, incorporates new products.
+39:30 @sdw_nj - I did some beta testing on the microbit web editors. It's great that they exist for situations where you don't have something better to use, but there are definitely better options.
+38:00 @siddacious -
+* Assembled and tested the first version of my battery powered CP board (pictured) that runs off a AA using a boost converter. I found plenty of things to fix but the concept is pretty promising. These are for running dotstars molded into the toys my wife sculpts and casts.
+* I have another CP board on the way for the Hackaday Square Inch thing (https://hackaday.io/contest/160135-the-return-of-the-square-inch-project) and hopefully I’ll be sending out yet another M4 board that Scott suggested that is possibly my most dense board so far.
+* As an aside, I’m not happy with the micro USB socket I’ve been using (https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/amphenol-fci/10118193-0001LF/609-4616-1-ND/2785380) so if someone has one they really like for strength and insert/remove force, please let me know.
+* Also so that someone can call me on it later, I’ll say here that I’m planning on writing a guide/article on how to mashup adafruit or other open source boards into custom designs.
+39:54 @sommersoft -
+* **FrequencyIn**: Started working OSCULP32K/GCLK source for DPLL1. Since non-sync enabling of a GCLK generator is only available in `samd/samd51/clocks.c`, and I wanted to make DPLL1 available to any future use anyway, I've started to move all of that out of `FrequencyIn` over to `clocks.c`. But, that is a fair amount of engineery thought process that I didn't anticipate. Definitely open to thoughts and suggestions.
+* VEML6070 now matches VEML6075 usage to max possible extent.
+* Non-CPish: spent the weekend setting up the laptop with dual boot Ubuntu Bionic. Hope to get to a point to help out with dev/user support on that platform. And, well, because penguin.
+18:33 @tannewt
+ * Continued displayio work to allow for dynamic display hookup.
+ * Normal Monday stuff.
+ * Heading to NYC and Boston Thursday through the following Friday. Will be at Maker Faire and Open Hardware Summit.
+ * Coordinate on Discord if you want to meet up.
+
+41:22 Discussion (In the weeds)
+* an easier way to enable/disable C modules per board
+* 46:21 MPR 121 12 pad touch

+15:00 Status Updates
+17:14 @kattni
+* Was out of town before this trip, the last few days was getting caught up.
+* Maker Faire this weekend. - great to meet everyone
+* Getting back into PyPiland, being thwarted by Sphinx, as usual.
+* Travel to Boston tomorrow, OHS on Thursday. Head home Friday.
+* Taking over libraries - coordinating everything with libs and everyone involved.
+
+
+15:05 @tannewt
+* Got distracted by gameboy before travelling.
+* Released Alpha.1 on Friday.
+* Lots of good discussions in NYC/maker faire. Good discussion about Discord and weekly meeting.
+* More discussions to come. At HQ now, travel tomorrow and OHS on Thursday. Fly home Friday.
+
+
+20:05 @dhalbert
+* nRF multiple peripheral instances
+* Merge 3.x fixes to master (4.0)
+
+
+21:34 @brennen
+* Still working on some docs on my first real CircuitPython project.
+* Pi library testing / updating.
+
+
+21:51 @cater - PR in for MPR121, first of maybe many. CAP1188, started working on this lib - get PR submitted for that soon. Handful of others but no need to mention those.
+
+
+22:41 @charlesburnaford - MPR121, that’s going to be a help on the music project. Working on the fingerboard for the ocarina, issue with 11 and 12 hole too close together. Trying to get it to work with CP.
+
+
+23:47 @deshipu - sick, no progress
+
+
+24:00 @drew fustini - Got a PR in to add the GPIO pins for the Beaglebone Black to Blinka, travelling to OHS, once I get home from there, adding SPI and I2C to Blinka for BBB, seems most important thing to have working.
+
+
+24:45 @jerryn - spent a bunch of time playing with Alpha 4 release, finding little issues, but working pretty well, dongle board with I2C and SPI, and working really well. False alarm bug, one board may have an issue.
+
+
+26:20 @MagicSquirrel_Gord - lurking
+
+
+26:31 @siddacious - status:
+Spent half of the weekend writing the MAX31856 driver and was able to finish up a decent looking first pass. I’ll work with Kattni to get it checked in an reviewed. Ping me if you can test it.
+
+Spent the rest of the weekend working with the wife to prep and pour the first half of the mold for the her baby raptor sculpture:
+https://www.instagram.com/p/BoGapTUHtkq/?hl=en&taken-by=vanessa_ditullio
+
+This week I’ll be helping V with finishing the mold, pulling casts, and general prep for designer con (https://www.designercon.com/). I’m out of town starting Thursday into the weekend but if I can get USPS to give me my 1x1 inch board, I’ll try and get it assembled and running CP before I leave.
+
+Also I haven’t forgotten the tutorial I’m working on. I’ve spent many a precious shower minute working on an outline that I’ll actually write down and flesh out when I’m flying later this week.
+
+
+28:00 @sommersoft
+* **FrequencyIn**: Now reading `COUNT` successfully; stumbled upon `CMD.READSYNC` as a step I was missing there. Now to just adjust value calculation accordingly.
+* Started FRAM library. Not too far with it yet, beyond cookiecutter and initial "what do I need".
+
+
+28:25 @josh - Short Status Update: Working on updating EduBlocks to use Scratch blocks on the micro:bit version then will bring it it adafruit.edublocks.org
+
+
+28:50 In the Weeds
+* @jerryn - slow enable of /tty/ACM0 on Ubuntu 18.04. May need to `apt purge modem-manager` [jerryn tried during chat, and that worked!]
+* 34:33 @Cater - PyPi for new libs, how to? Add requirements.txt and setup.py to cookie-cutter to handle PyPi.
+* 39:40 @josh Chances of a Circuit Playground extension for Scratch 3.0? We don’t know, but would be happy to be informed.
