Re: [lowrisc-dev] crash course
Dear Secrux,
I can only really refer you to our most recent release at the beginning
of the year (ethernet-v0.5). The plans for our next release are still
fluid.
Obviously if you have access to a Digilent Nexys4ddr you can get started
straight away with our prebuilt images. Once this works you will want to
go through our build tutorial to gain familiarity. In terms of
contribution we are looking for:
1. Any kind of Computer Science research that uses our system and can
mention it in papers.
2. Imaginative examples of tag architecture to demonstrate security
enhancements.
3. Any hardware performance boosts, or analysis of where performance
boosts will come from.
4. Bug fixes and/or software enhancements.
5. Ports to support other FPGA boards.
6. Corrections or improvements to documentation or tutorial instructions.
7. Put your own suggestion here.
Because of the flexibility and low cost of the Digilent platform we are
not looking to move to a larger platform just now.

Hi.
Unfortunately there was nobody in the corresponding IRC channel so I think it might be
worth to ask it here.
I would like to get an overview about the lowRISC project. I would love to participate in
one way or another in order to make the hardware available to the public one day.
Can somebody provide me a crash-course how things are working and which further steps are
needed to be done?
Best,
secrux
