[Microbit-Python] JOE / DAMIEN - REQUIRES ACTION Re: Is there a publicly available Asm/C/C++ API yet?

[Finney, Joe]

Folks,

Just sent an invite to the micro:bit DAL repo also. 

I did create a read only group for the same reason as Damien mentioned, so let's see if it works! :-)

Mark: let me know if there's an access control problem.

markshannon has been added to my private repo.

Mark: you have push access (don't know any other way to give you
access without full access) but please don't push!  Send PRs only.
Thanks :)
