Be it specific a nomadnet site thing or a new reticulum interface or whatever, here's the dumping ground for ideas that you either don't have the technical know-how for or you are too lazy/busy to do.

- MicroReticulum RNode firmware to support ethernet for RAK4631 devices.
- MicroReticulum RNode firmware to support telemetry.

- microreticulum: discoverable interfaces
- microreticulum: Autointerface and TCP interface
- a reticulum LoRa rangetest app that creates some sort of heatmap
- Groupchat without a shared server

I am working on one. Still under development though...

* Syncthing, but over Reticulum
* Signal K integration (working on it)
* Collaborative text editor like SubEthaEdit

A nomadnet reviewing nomadnet site where anyone can give a nomadnet site a rating between 1 and 5 and give a review that is publicly viewable

Awesome! I saw something like it on rns.moskow but did not get how it worked exactly. That must be your work then :)

It's still under heavy testing but works for basic uplink mapping. I am working on making a combined mode that will map both uplink and downlink. It works by using a bot installed on the instance directly connected to the rnode. I am currently in the middle of rebuilding my PoE-RNodes so I didn't have a chance of testing it out yet.

Hi, I think we need a lora circuit board designed for MicroReticulum with a low-power CPU, a good amount of memory, and MPPT solar charging.

I believe it already exists: Use a RAK4631 + RAK15001, with a Unify enclosure (https://store.rakwireless.com/products/unify-enclosure-ip65-100x75x38-solar). Hope it helps.

LMXF for group calendar event/task information at group destination hashes outside of nomadnet. Community spaces use time as a denominator to instill consistency and activity at a given action/development. It's not necessarily a pure Reticulum feature, but it is something that should be useful for everyone.

Is this something you are running yourself?

A protocol similar to [ActivityPub](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ActivityPub) or [AT](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AT_Protocol), but designed specifically to run over Reticulum would be cool. I think federated platforms are generally a good idea.

Yes, I have all the things. I am now missing the battery that I will order soon.

I am really interested how it works for you. Can you maybe create a thread about it after you tested it a bit? Especially how long the battery is able to last with the small solar panel and microreticulum. I think a lot of people would be interested in a simple solar solution like this.

MPPT is not really needed, unless the board allows higher input voltage levels and/or you want to attach larger panels. there are many reciepes for solar meshcore repeaters, which give a good guess

I disagree that MPPT is needed to optimize the efficiency of solar panels in the northern hemisphere as well.
I think that MicroReticulum is more energy hungry than Meshcore repeaters.
