[NRF] Are there any plans to support the NFC functionality of the nRF52..
The nRF52 series have an embedded NFC slave that can function as a pairing method, activation from sleep, and even as an alternative way to configure a device.
@glennrub Are there any plans to expose this part of the chip?
NRF52840 OpenThread Support
Are there any plans to support OpenThread on the NRF52840 chip?
There are 2 different Mesh networking technologies natively built for this chip.
Both the nrf52832 and nrf52840 support Bluetooth5 Mesh but only the 840 supports thread.
Personally thread support would be my first choice and I wish I knew where to begin exposing the api to upython. I've played around with OpenThread on the nrf52840 development boards and was very impressed.
I know pycom got openthread working with micropython through a LORA network but supporting the proper radio would be awesome.
