@cvinayak Is there any timeline when LE Extended Advertising will be supported?

[cvinayak]

@spoerk No, there is nothing planned. I was only able to start work on it (non-connectable non-scannable mode), but had to switch to other tasks. Design and implementation contributions are welcome, I can always assist in reviews.

@cvinayak i was planning to start implementation of LE extended advertisement. i would be happy to contribute to this project. Any suggestions from your side that would help me to start?

[cvinayak]

@swapkada , there are two parts to the feature, applications facing public API comprising the Host ,and the controller component exposing HCI interface. For true end product, both these needs to be in place, I will suggest to partner with a sample application we want to achieve, that showcases advertising extensions, and implement verticals in small steps. I suggest you start a thread on the development maillist and solicit @jhedberg comments, and I am sure @carlescufi can inspire on the API front too

Now that #9875 is scheduled for v1.14.0 - any update on the ETA of this ticket?

[pabigot]

@cvinayak is this done enough it can be closed?

[cvinayak]

@pabigot No, this feature is done when a sanity run of mandatory conformance tests is completed. The feature is not complete yet.
