Hi all,
as the year 2012 has already ended or will soon end depending on your
timezone, it might be a good occasion to start thinking of an OsmoDevCon
2013.
I personally percevied OsmoDevCon 2012 as a big success, and it was fun
to bring everyone together.
Generally, I prefer to keep the spirit of an invitation-only
developer+contributor-only event of those involved in Osmocom. At the
same time, I would consider it a good idea to add a one day
user-conference to the schedule, where we try to get interested users up
to speed with the various projects, possibly including some workshops
and the like.
So schedule-wise, I would suggest something like:
* one day user conference
* two day developer/contributor event
* optionally: 1-2 "hacking days".
The concept of "hacking days" has proven to be quite useful for the
netfilter project in the past (Pablo and I can acknowledge to that
fact). I'm not sure how many people would be able to spend even more
days of their schedule, but even if it's a much smaller group it would
still be useful, IMHO.
I'd like you to
1) provide feedback on the ideas about the one-day user event and the
hacking days
2) consider whether late march (like 2012) would be a good schedule
again
3) what we can improve from the last event
In terms of improvements, I so far have noted down:
* larger venue needs to be found
* complaints about the venue not having sufficient heating
Venue-wise, I would again suggest to hold it in Berlin, as it's
reasonbly well connected, has lots of low-cost flights to it,
accomodation is not too expensive and holger/me/sysmocom can take care
of local organization related activities. Hoewver, if somebody has a
strong opinion against berlin _and_ is willing to organize it, I'm not
completely against another venue.
Regards and happy new year,
Harald

hi thomas,
i saw your work for your master of science. i must say: congratulations!
it really brings both openbts and openbsc projects together. it allows
to use both sdr and real bts together in one network. as shown at the
chaos communication congress (29c3), sylvain presented a compal phone
with firmware to turn it into a trx for openbts. with your code, it is
possible to use it with openbsc. this is something i aimed at too.
i like to know if your work is (only) a proof of concept or something
that could be used in a productive environment. i would help to review
the changes to osmo-bts and help to get them merged to the current
master branch. iirc, there are just some fixes and minor issues to solve.
i already had planed a similar approach: but instead of using source
from openbts, i wanted to do scheduling and coding/fec inside osmo-bts.
code from libosmocore could be used for that. instead of using the
device to the femto-dsp as an interface, i wanted to add the trx
manager's udp interface to osmo-bts code. this way it would not require
an additional process to run a trx with osmo-bts. special things
regarding to the trx could be configured with the osmo-bts' config.
as some guys at the 29c3 might have noticed, i was a little shocked when
i read about your work. i was highly motivated to do a work that i found
it was already done, so my motivation dropped to zero. i would like to
apologize for my bad mood at the congress.
best regards,
andreas
Hi guys
Please find attached a patch to cell_log that allows a user to specify a
custom frequency range instead of the standard one.
In the past I've done the same job changing the code by hand and
recompiling, but a command line switch is more feasible.
This is useful when one wants to monitor a subset of arfcns (like in
GSM900) or even a single one.
Any comment appreciated.
Dario.
When parsing SI4, there's a check and a log message saying that CBCH
MA is ignored until SI1 is received. Then the MA is decoded anyway --
incorrectly -- such that it remains incorrect even after receiving
the next SI1.
Fix that with an "else".

In gsm411_sms.c the function gsm411_rx_rl_data receives "struct gsm48_hdr
*gh" as input then in very first line typecasts the pointer to "struct
gsm411_rp_hdr *rp_data" to access its "data" field.
struct gsm411_rp_hdr *rp_data = (struct gsm411_rp_hdr*)&gh->data;
But the two header structures have their "data" fields offset by one byte
as in:
struct gsm411_rp_hdr {
> uint8_t len;
> uint8_t msg_type;
> uint8_t msg_ref;
> uint8_t data[0];
> } __attribute__ ((packed));
>
> struct gsm48_hdr {
> uint8_t proto_discr;
> uint8_t msg_type;
> uint8_t data[0];
> } __attribute__((packed));
Obviously this displacement has been compensated for elsewhere in the code
as the application works. But this seems to be inadvertent. And if it is
deliberate, it is risky programming practice and could create problems
later on.
Request you to correct and update suitably.
Thanks.

I perfectly understand and agree about being reluctant to publish code that could be used for malicious purposes.
I was talking more about what Harald suggested: a public/private git repo related with Layers implementation into the MS.
Cheers,
Luca

Hi,
yesterday I fucked up the second C123 while trying to replace the filters, so I decided to buy one model from Sysmocom (with the filters already replaced), but due to too many orders they do not offer this service anymore.
Is somebody on this list able and willing to sell me one C123 with the filter kit already built in (and tested)? I'd really appreciate if someone, who is more experienced in SMD soldering than me, could help me out.
If so, please contact me at: clemensgru(a)gmail.com
I live in Austria, so delivery from Europe should not be a problem.
Thanks.
Clemens
