Last time I heared, it was just planned. Perhaps I'm not up2date and you've got a pointer for me ? > Though I haven't heard of any camera with 9p yet. Yep, that would be the next step: provide a toolkit for embedded developers and encourage them to use it instead of the bogus pptp+proprietary stuff. Meanwhile I've made up another front: I'm negotiating with an developer/producer of power meters and similar products, which log their data to SD cards and have an ethernet/IP interface. At this point I'm thinking about an more thin approach for those devices: put 9P on the lowest level possible, no IP, but a very thin protocol (eg. somethink like IL, but directly ontop of eth ?), just enough to carry 9P messages. Just an error-correcting (not necessarily in-order) datagram protocol, which does not need an explicit address assignment (eg. builtin 64bit device addresses ?). These devices essentially just speak 9P - multiple devices on the same network interface are represented within the fs hierachy. cu -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weig...@metux.de mobile: +49 174 7066481 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme ----------------------------------------------------------------------
