[Ovmsdev] Hello, & Nissan Leaf support

[Kevin Sharpe]

Just to keep everyone in the loop, I¹ve given Nigel, Nikki, and Robert, free
OVMS hardware to kick start the Leaf development.

I¹m happy to do the same for other people if they can convince me they¹ll
contribute to the development in some way. Send me an email and convince me
:-)

Exciting times!

Hi all,
 I'm currently waiting for some the hardware.(ovms, odb cable, gps antenna)
It should arrive in the next few days to add to the pic 3 programmer,
various obd cables, serial adapter I have here, a mobile SIM & I've also
setup some fresh VMs for development & have partially setup git. More of
this last item & mplabx/compiler to to be setup soon.

 I am working this week but will try and squeeze in a little time to at
least get the HW programmed with the current firmware & see what we have.

Nigel.
