Hi, Marcel

# I wonder why the article I posted is always handled as another thread in the sourceforge archive.

It isn't decided yet.
But I think DUN, and GOEP related profiles(like OPP) are mandatory.
And probably A2DP and AVRCP are required from the market needs strongly.

I think UART will be use.

I agree. Your opinion is right.

However I know AVDTP is harder to implement than other profiles,
because I studied it before.

That's fine. I'm very glad at your comment.

But in this moment, I can't negotiate with you because I don't have such an authority.
I'm sorry.

I will bring back to inform my boss and our team of this,
then we will discuss what we should do.


And from another article:

Yes, of course. I fully understand.

I am still in a investigating phase now,
we cannot negotiate about details until later.
First we have to discuss in our team.


> I forgot to put a smiley after my comment ;)

Oh, It doesn't matter. ; )
Please forgive me if I make a rude comment or break unwritten rules like a comment witten without smiley.
Because I am not westerner, I don't fully understand your Western culture.

I understand. Thank you for your information.


Again, I will input these informations to our team, then we will discuss what we should do in deeply.

Thanks a lot for your kindness.

in most cases this is a problem of a broken mailer. I use Evolution and
the only thing I do is hit the "Reply to All" button and write my
answer.

Everything that is based on RFCOMM or BNEP is absolutly unproblematic.

>>From my personal opinions I agree, but at the moment I don't really see
the market moving. Actually I don't know why.

Then you should forget thinking about SCO over HCI. You will run into
UART bandwith problems when you have to support more than one profile at
one time. Best example is PAN + Headset/Handfree.

The problem is that they use multiple L2CAP connections with the same
PSM for different protocols. This is totally stupid, because you can
only differ between them on the order of their creation. However the
basic mode looks very simple. Right now it looks like that I will
support AVDTP as a sequential packet socket.

No problem for me, because I don't like talking about theoretical stuff.
I prefer to talk about facts. If you know what you want, we can talk
about what is possible and what not. And I can help you with not driving
into a dead end.

See above.

No you didn't anything wrong. The smiley means for me that you should
take me comment too serious. In this case this applies to the Affix
stack, because I don't take this stack really serious.

You are welcome.
