However, as things go, those volunteers also stopped to respond to PID / OUI requests, and we're now launching the third attempt of continuing this service.</p> <p>As the openmoko.org wiki will soon be moved into an archive of static web pages only, we're also moving the list of allocated PID and OUIs into a git repository.</p> <p>Since git.openmoko.org is also about to be decommissioned, the repository is now at <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/openmoko/openmoko-usb-oui">https://github.com/openmoko/openmoko-usb-oui</a>, next to all the archived openmoko.org repository mirrors.</p> <p>This also means that in addition to sending an e-mail application for getting an allocation in those ranges, you can now send a pull-request via github.</p> <p>Thanks to <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/cuvoodoo">cuvoodoo</a> for volunteering to maintain the Openmoko USB PID and IEEE OUI allocations from now on!</p>ethernetopenmokooshwusbhttps://laforge.gnumonks.org/blog/20180609-openmoko-usb_id/Fri, 08 Jun 2018 16:00:00 GMT
