This has now been resolved. Problem was a broken USB cable.

What version of OS X are you running? If you try to enter DFU mode, that will tell us if the USB connector is broken or working. To do this you need to connect the DFU hole (labelled P1/DFU on the back of the pyboard, in the bottom right corner looking from the back) with the 3V3 hole that is next t...

We are working very hard to get the boards out there into the wild. The first batch of boards have been manufactured (3000 of them), and are currently being programmed and tested. They will then be sent first to the Kickstarter backers. The remaining boards will be for sale on the website, at http:/...

I mentioned Django simply because it's got a lot of existing users, and if uPy can help them run their websites a bit faster with less memory, that would be a good place to start promoting uPy to the wider audience. if you'd prefer 3rd parties not make any noise about uPy before Kickstarter delivery...

If Micro Python could run Django, even in some heavily stripped down form, then that would get people's attention. Imagine nginx + uPy

Thanks to pfalcon, Micro Python can already act as a simple web server or client. With generator support, it can almost start to be a real server.

There are 2 ports that I will be doing in the coming months. One is a Cortex, so essentially just (!) porting the peripherals. The other is the dsPIC33. I don't know the details of the dsPIC port, nor its open source nature (or lack thereof). But I'll try to get it MIT licensed and part of the micro...

Before we start pushing Micro Python further there are 2 basic hurdles that I want to clear: 1) deliver fully on the Kickstarter, 2) make uPy run a decent amount of existing Python code. The former is easy to measure when done, the latter, not. I was in contact briefly with Guido van Rossum months a...
