How permanent is this change and when will we see it rolled into the new codebase?
Am currently delivering 20 units and am thinking to myself that requiring perpetual bootloader mode is going to make field upgrades between the versions just this side of difficult. I will have to do some testing.

I make a simplest bootloader 2K site via serial port and compatible with avrdude (STK500 protocol). So i can add any feature as i need (no need USB for my devices).

This post is about changing the mechanism that the current libmaple uses to enter the bootloader. The change IMHO is significant.

Why will you need perpetual bootloader mode? The patches just implement the new "open at 1200 baud, close" reset signal. Even with these patches, SerialUSB still accepts the old DTR + "1EAF" reset signal, so if you didn't need perpetual bootloader before, you shouldn't need it now, and if you do, that's a bug.

Thanks I guess I misread the above.
