[Ovmsdev] OVMS CAN-USB Call for Assistance

As some of you may know, over the past couple of years OVMS has made me passionate about the concept of 'open vehicles', and in particular how smartphone control and monitoring can further the cause of EV adoption. One handicap to this is the expense and difficultly of decoding the vehicle buses.

I've recently launched a new project on github:

https://github.com/markwj/CAN-RE-Tool

With the other OVMS projects on-going, I've got too much on my plate to do this all on my own, so I'm announcing it here and hoping that some one / some people will step forward and offer to help. The main areas I need help with are finalising the hardware design and writing the PIC32 firmware - but longer-term if people want to help out with the CAN-RE-TOOL software, that would be wonderful.

Open Vehicles can sponsor the hardware for developers - so all I'm looking for is donation of your time and enthusiasm to this project.

If you can't directly help with the coding / hardware hacking, then perhaps just help by spreading the news about this.

Volunteers please contact me at mark at openvehicles.com.

Regards, Mark.
