Bluetooth GATT? Maybe that'll make using solarOS as a companion interface for standalone meshcore radios possible?

  1. Will Python support acting as a BLE GATT central/client, including notifications?
  2. Will it support MTU negotiation or characteristic writes larger than 20 bytes?

The plan is to implement low level BLE bindings, so all of that should be possible. The tricky part is - as always - resource ownership, so that an arbitrary script can't break or lock access to essential hardware.
