i'm not sure if that offers us anything useful, but just seems to me we're at the mercy of one guy to provide updates as we don't have the source.

Well, based on the list of the SDK updates, I can see multiple enhancements for nodeMCU - such as ability to change MAC address, hidden SSIDs, change the DHCP range of IPs for DHCP server or ability to disable DHCP client and set static IP.
However, the closed source of the firmware is starting to bother me a lot, too, so I'll probably have to learn C and start working directly with the SDK and current buildchain.

- Sat Dec 20, 2014 10:06 am #5243 Yes, closed source bothers me too. I think the LUA from nodemcu is good as a starting point, but seems to drive into a blind alley.

@zeroday: You do a great job, but the community wants to develop things on an open source basis. Maybe we can convince you to make the source available
