Hi, all.
Thanks for the heads up and kind words.
Been a long time since maintaining shrimping.it was a priority and it must have fully fallen off the bottom of the list this year. in DNS terms..
Please note all resources are still Creative Commons at https://github.com/shrimpingit this includes... * Project resources (including step by step SVGs) at https://github.com/ShrimpingIt/projects * Website copy (exactly what was on the website) at e.g. https://github.com/ShrimpingIt/website_text/blob/master/src/content/index.md
Also there's always the wayback machine resources at https://web.archive.org/web/20250805171203/http://start.shrimping.it/
Had a chance to pursue the ESP ecosystem for a while also at https://vgkits.org/blog/ but in the end I've ended up stepping away from arts and open source in favour of more lucrative enterprise software.
Have fun everyone!

It was a great project from Cefn, and I still use it to introduce young people to Electronics.
If someone wants to capture the information in a blog post, we should be able to host it on the BCS OSSG website. Which should give it longevity.
Best wishes,
Jeremy

ShrimpingIt was a one-man band run by Cefn Hoile.
He presented at Wuthering Bytes in 2012

However, I met him around the same time at an event in Liverpool and he had a very young family present.
The Shrimp was primarily based around an ATmega328 - and times have moved on, to better and faster hardware.
There comes a time when an enthusiast with a good idea, becomes overtaken by progress, and a huge supply of vastly cheaper hardware.
Thanks for the info, Ken. Funnily enough, what reminded me to look it up was a workshop around the ESP32 which was run recently in the US.
Sincerely,
Sevan _______________________________________________ oshug mailing list -- oshug@oshug.org To unsubscribe send an email to oshug-leave@oshug.org
