Recommended nRF52840 RCP implementation?

[fgervais]

I see that there is two implementations:

• https://github.com/openthread/ot-nrf528xx
• https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-nrf/tree/main/samples/openthread/coprocessor

Which one would be recommended for the development of a new product?

For new product, Nordic recommends the nRF Connect SDK.

If it's the case, in my opinion something should be done to make it clear.

At least for me the repo hosted on openthread looks more official than something in a sample folder. Even the new Note: (openthread/ot-nrf528xx@8c6658f) does not really make sense as when we use the ot-nrf528xx repo we are not really aware of which backend we use.

We tried to make this clear with:

• Title: "OpenThread on nRF52840 Example"
• First line: "This directory contains example platform drivers for Nordic Semiconductor nRF52840 SoC"
• First callout: "Note: For new projects, you should use nRF Connect SDK."
• Sub title: "Building the examples"
