We have just released version 2.6.1 of the mctp utilities - the first stable point-release for the project.

Version 2.6 was the first to support running with restricted privileges, and has been integrated into meta-openembedded's "blacksail" release; with OE as a primary consumer of the mctp tools, a stable release gives us a method of providing a set of fixes, without potentially-disruptive feature changes that may come with integrating a major release.

Deku is an open-source Rust crate which simplifies the process of serialisation and deserialisation of binary data structures, preventing tedious manual parser-writing and inevitable bugs.

Andrew at Code Construct has contributed to the project, expanding it for use in embedded systems.

Contributing to this project is part of our support for the open-source software community. We're proud to be growing the capacity for ergonomic and reliable code in embedded systems.
