1.1. Next step
Using hardware I have on hand.
1.1.1. Order any needed supplies
Still need to establish a better source of hardware.
1.1.2. Assemble and test
2. Soap Molds
Tried prototype mold (without drafts) based on C++ bottle demo. Printed.
3. Github
Added build actions to gmpforth, xrso12832, wktplot, libriffr and libpvocf. wktcolor needs more build fiddling as Ubuntu doesn't have packages for ColPack or OpenMesh AFAICT.
4. Linux Audio
4.1. pvanal to spectrogram
Started. Much to my surprise, existing audio file libraries (libsnd, audiofile) cannot read the extended WAV format used by CSound. To that end, started libriffr https://github.com/daniel-kelley/libriffr for the RIFF file parsing and libpvocf https://github.com/daniel-kelley/libpvocf for the PVOC specific handling.
4.2. CSound programming.
The FORTRAN of computer music. Getting up to speed.
4.3. Faust programming
4.3.1. Next Steps
- GAC Patch save/restore
- LV2 autopatcher
Exploratory tool to generate (was pd, ecasound, now carla) patch for arbitrary LV2 plugin: hook up audio inputs to signal source, audio outputs to speakers, control inputs to control surface, etc.
- OSC control surface
Some sort of GUI tool (knob/slider) to OSC messages. This may be as simple as a Faust UI program.
- Faust/csound
See if a faust generated unit works.
5. EPICS
5.1. Next steps
5.1.1. u3scpi network port testing
5.1.2. initial EPICS interface
5.1.3. u3scpi analog/digital port reconfiguration.
6. Brini Tracker II
Suspended for now.
6.1. Next steps
6.1.1. Validate remaining standard GPS messages
6.1.2. Investigate GPS chipset data logging
6.1.3. Investigate LoRA radio interface
7. wktcolor
7.1. Next steps
7.1.1. Explore how to get a minimal coloring
Need a specific planar graph four coloring.
8. wktplot
8.1. Next steps
Understand why -r doesn't solve the wktvor/wktdel "sliver at edge" problem. Explore biological cell Voronoi organization
9. AMDGPU
9.1. Next step
9.1.1. Reverse engineer HSAKMT programming.
10. Ninja v Make
10.1. Next Step
10.1.1. clean simple measurements
11. GMP Forth
Need to think about adding floating point support
12. ca-r
Tier data finally deprecated so processing is removed.
12.1. Next Step
None.
13. Swocer
13.1. Most crashing addressed
Nullified 'handle' API free functions helped a lot. Still see some errors in operations.
13.2. Added outline for 'bottle' test
Added all functions believed to be needed for 'bottle' demo test. Test doesn't pass so is disabled.
13.3. Next steps
Swocer future. Check out what's needed for gears.
