MotenoR5 and github

[bobe99]

Felix, are you open sourcing R5 in github as you did with R1-R4?

[bobe99]

Well, I'm dated. There's a Moteino R6 out?  Oops!!!
I saw another thread that indicated R6 is on GitHub but alas I don't see any new files in the Moteino repo.

They are much the same with minor layout changes.

[bobe99]

So, is the answer no?

The schematic is posted in the guide.
Is that not sufficiently open source?

I embraced the Motenio a few years ago. You open sourced the eagle files, showed me how to make a stencil from a can, how use a toaster oven to reflow a board (inspiring me to make my own reflow oven), how to make a test jig using pogo pins, how to burn fuses and a bootloader. Heck, I even bought a Fluke to get "true RMS" values based on a couple youtube video's you made.
   
I understand the effort and time you have spent, and am very appreciative for it. I've purchased far more items from you than the 3 Oshpark boards I made myself. For me, the fun was learning this type of stuff (from you). I'm just a hobbyist. I don't make money off of your work.

My question on open sourcing the latest eagle releases for R5 and R6 is simply a hope to learn more; For you to continue your tradition associated with the original Moteino.

If you have reasons for not continuing to post Moteino eagle updates to github, that's fine. Just say so (not necessarily the reasons, just that you are no longer going to do it).

Hey Bob,
I'm glad my work and resources have helped. I hope they continue to do so.
I thought of sharing a single eagle set of files that are version-less. They would likely be based on the currently released files.
The latest schematic is also shared and the differences discussed in the forum.
Do you have a specific question about anything that changed?

BTW It's Moteino, not Moteno
