[Ovmsdev] YouTube Google Hangout

[Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield]

HI folks, 

Yesterday, I held a quick hangout showing people how to upgrade the firmware on V2 hardware. I shared it onto YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXaRWT8LAmY using the TransportEvolved account (the site I own/write for… www.transportevolved.com) 

Several folks asked if we could hold a hangout explaining how to use OVMS from the start. Maybe we could arrange something here with a couple of folks on board? I’d be happy to ‘drive’ the desk as it were, if other people were happy to help explain stuff etc? 

We’ve got a lot of noobs now wanting to take part in the project, which is excellent, but a YouTube primer may give us all some extra ground for the project.

Second, (for Mark) You said you were hoping to have alpha code for the LEAF today. If you do have it, would you be willing to package it up for me (I don’t have the compiling tools on hand so pre-packaged .hex files work best for me)? 

I’m going on a fairly long Xmas trip in a few weeks, so it’d be a good chance to put OVMS through its paces. 

Third, I’ve heard from some users who say they can’t get the Pickit 2/3 working with the software now available online, because the required libraries aren’t available any more…. Thoughts? 

Nikki.
