Hi,
I'm picking up a project based on a NRF51822 module and I'm currently trying 
out Zephyr due to the available BLE support. However, I'm having some issues 
with it and, while I guess it is a matter of learning more about Zephyr to 
solve them, I was wondering about what is the state now for NuttX and support 
for BLE on NRF5. I revisited old NuttX e-mail threads and at the time it was 
mentioned that Alan asked Nordic about the BLE stack which is on Zephyr to be 
released as BSD to be included in NuttX [1] (to which there was no response). 
From my understanding this code is part of Zephyr which is licensed under 
Apache 2.0. Since NuttX is also licensed the same way, maybe now there's a 
better chance of integrating support for this?

I really don't know much about Bluetooth Classic/BLE internals but in case 
someone with more knowledge is able to work on that part I think i could try to 
get basic support for NRF51822 into NuttX. In any case, I see there's already 
NRF52x support so that is not really an issue. But at least I could help test 
it.

What do you think? Would this be possible now? Was it just the licensing issue 
or were there other technical impediments? Or maybe now there's still a 
licensing issue (I hope not).

Best,
Matias
