What's next

Ok, the most obvious things to work on next would probably be the bugs and feature requests from Sourceforge. One thing which is however not there is to increase stability for Blunt. This covers two things: proper shutdown of the driver in error or disconnect cases to avoid the dreaded “communications port busy” error. And then safeguards to prevent crashes when talking to devices which I cannot test with. This concerns mostly Sony Ericsson devices which is actually a bit surprising. Ericsson has always been a good Bluetooth implementor, so I wonder if they interpret the standard a bit differently than I do. One thing they certainly can do is to be more agressive in their implementation since they know what should work.
