Dead project?

[skandragon]

I'm interested in playing with Go code to handle Meshtastic messages. I see this is somewhat outdated code, and the security issues opened are not handled.

Is this a project that is in use, or was it a short-term experiment?

It's still in use, but myself and the other contributors have been short on time. I've had some other work and personal obligations come up, but I have a strong need to flesh this out more and get it updated. That will be happening but not for a few more months.

Sounds good. I will be happy to make PRs :)

I admit my use case might not be the same as yours; I want to monitor many topics at once, on all channels. This is mostly to implement a multi-channel bot or map maker.

[crypto-smoke]

That is something I was working on as well, for a public BBS that sets up and uses a private channel for each user (and thus a unique key for each user). I'm not sure how the landscape for this looks though now that public/private key crypto was added to the firmware. My workaround may no longer be needed.

My workaround may no longer be needed.

Probably not, but AFAIK this code cannot act like a user yet, or at least does not also implement the encryption.
