Hi all,
I've been disappointed to learn that Open Source RF's Kickstarted RFduino
board is not what it seemed to be. Key elements of its source are closed,
namely its Bluetooth Low-Energy stack.
Their github repo includes binary copies of AVRDUDE that come from modified
source. This source has not been released. They say it's on their "todo
list":
https://github.com/RFduino/RFduino
Discussion of this and the general lack-of-source issue is here:
http://forum.rfduino.com/index.php?topic=27.0
I believe this is a violation of AVRDUDE's license.
Cheers,
Grant
