Status of g2_link


 

So ... VA3UV. Has he given up the G2_link project?

If yes, then where does that leave us? I do note that it's G2_link
and not G3_link, so if the "G" relates to the Icom bits, now G3.2,
does this mean it's pretty old?

I don't have the software (I know - I haven't asked The Right Guy -
it's fine) so don't know what it consists of. If it's scripts, we can
probably make do. If it's binaries and we have no source ...

?I’ve worked with Ramesh and we have determined that g2_link will compile with the components provided in the archive provided in the documentation. I am working on modifying the install documentation for g2_link in an Alma environment.

When I return from vacation I’ll try and update the install steps.

I’ve also updated some if the zip files to accommodate both G3 for Centos and Alma.

That makes you Project Manager! ??

People move on, interests change, ain’t no thing.? Software authors owe us exactly $0.00.?

Thank you for taking up the torch. I have a new Alma G3.2 and am happy to help test.?

I have a couple of local hams that are going to assist the transition from Centos to AlmaLinux… so helpfully we will get some helpful assistance. I have 4 or 5 gateways we can test with.

Scott Lawson asked that the original dextra code not be available publicly… so I can’t really push it out to GitHub, etc.

i have supported g2-link ver 4 and I have some zips of 4.1 and 4.2 that appear to come from other than Ramesh.

Years ago Ramesh provided me with some 3.x versions which I still have.

As you can see here I show modified g2-lh and g2-link v 4.0p meaning "painter" version, which is modified from the v4.0

The problem we all have is that there were many versions that a number of folks modified that there isn't a clear lineage OR which is the latest and has fixes.

I'm getting ready to put alma and G3.2 on our 3 systems and likely a 4th I help with locally. I'm not sure where I will start with g2-link but likely it is what I'm currently running (4.0p) and see what works.

yes. but it will take me a while to get it together. i have to get alma on a server first. Also, I must determine whether I can share src or a binary since long ago I agreed to not distribute the src.

One challenge I have mentioned is "what is the current official src"? Is my v4 (aside from my changes) the same as other v4 out there? (I think not.) and what are these 4.1 and 4.2 src?

Maybe it is time to create an "official" src....
