<!channel> - what would be the most helpful things Efabless can do to help you with your bringup? More office hours calls? A webinar? Please tell me your ideas in this thread

I think a webinar will be ideal to have the more up-to-date information of how to do the bring up for then later develop some documentation. Regarding the active working, I'm working on it, but I'm block because external circumstances, I think next week I can continue on the bring up with better equipment.

I don’t have a MPW-2 project, but I take this as a more general question related to all project phases. My suggestion would be a pro-active documentation. In other words, picking up slack content (and other useful information) and converting it into a proper documentation. I’m not sure if the FAQ sheet was pro-actively executed. And I also don’t know if Efabless wants to pay money for someone driving this “pro-active documentation”. So a classical, more realistic proposal which might work could be a Wiki, which is driven by the community and people interested in can add to it. No need to elaborate on the advantages of a Wiki here. Cheers, Tobias PS1: Sorry if I just missed it and a Wiki already exists. PS2: Well, nowadays you might train a model with the slack content, but for now a Wiki might just do it.

more information about next run.

I think office hours would be helpful, where we show/review/try/discuss together.

I guess a webinar would be great for a broader audience at first and then for specific issues office hours can be utilized.

A wiki exists? where is it?

For me it's very unclear what is expected to work and what isn't. It seems there's some disparate knowledge about this but nothing concrete. A page detailing the known issues, most probable cause and possible mitigations would be fantastic. To be honest I have been putting off trying to bring up my chips because I don't want to waste time if its not going to work. Clear info about is and isn't expected to work would help a lot

@yrrapt I've been pretty much waiting for people to "iron out the infrastructure" too.

@Matt Venn I’m a little late to this thread, but office hours would be really helpful! Are there office hours going on and if so, where can I find the schedule? I started bringing up my chip on Saturday and have been able to get up to the gpio_test passing thanks to the docs in caravel_board and help from Slack here. I am now trying to figure out everything that is needed to appropriately modify gpio_test for my use case (also posted the issues I’m facing in Slack on a separate thread).
