Return-Path: Reply-To: From: "Halam Rose" To: "Marcel Holtmann" , Cc: "Max Krasnyansky" , "Daryl Van Vorst" , "BlueZ Mailing List" Subject: BlueZ Qualification and 7 Layers UK Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2003 10:49:52 -0000 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-15" In-Reply-To: <1046425128.6725.132.camel@pegasus.local> List-ID: Hello. I run the Bluetooth lab at 7 Layers UK and contacted Max offering to do qualification work for BlueZ in some not-obviously-commercial way. A quick summery of who we are may help you understand where we are coming from. 7 Layers run numerous Bluetooth and GSM labs around the world, boast 4 BQB's and also supply and support Bluetooth test labs for other organisations. 7 Layers UK are eagerly awaiting completion of our BQTF status (the audit was the hardest 2 days work I can remember...), our BQB is nearly 1 year old :o) We have a qualified RF and protocol test rig though some tests we have done by 7 Layers in Germany. I want to get involved in BlueZ and am willing to devote some time and perhaps even money to it. My Linux experience is limited and personally I know the bottom end of the Bluetooth stack much better than the top. It seems I am in a good position to assist or coordinate the qualification of BlueZ. Now I don't relay know who you are and what your involvement with BlueZ is, please could you drop me a few lines of introduction. Also I'd like to know how having a qualified BlueZ would help you so I can focus on the value.

I have had a nice talk about this topic with Prof. Dr.-Ing. J?rg Wollert from the FH Bochum at the Bluetooth Kongress in Germany. They have done some work with 7 Layers Germany and if you like I can try to coordinate the efforts to get a Bluetooth qualification for BlueZ. Regards Marcel
