Wrote a little something to read Host & Drive Revocation Lists from a Media Key Block. Question is: should I waste time to validate records against the public key in the spec? :3
Terminal output showing the content of a media key block, read record by record. On this screenshot, we can see the MKB version type and Host Revocation List.

My blu-ray drive told me it's not friend with my HCert anymore.
Nevermind, I've been persuasive enough to get it to read actual data even if bus encryption is "required" :3c

Coming soon: remote control of analog repeaters through #Hamnet. cc @Fred F4EED/KI7QQP
Control plane uses MQTT, either in fire and forget mode, or with reliable delivery and explicit command acknowledgement. #hamr #hamradio
SVXReflector log trace showing the controlled repeater leaving and connecting back, due to multiple "change module" commands being sent. Agent debug trace showing the command being received reliably through MQTT and the acknowledgement message being sent back and the action being launched (switching to room frm).

J'arrive à me connecter et à utiliser les touches spéciales, mais les frappes clavier ne sont pas reconnues... Ré-essayé depuis X11 au lieu de Wayland, et sur un autre numéro, mais c'est pas mieux. Il va falloir que je gratte pour voir ce qui ne va pas...

@Jelora, est-ce que serveur minitel est encore opérationnel? Je viens d'apprendre que Xtel est encore packagé sur Debian, et si c'est encore le cas, je vais sortir mon Sportster Flash pour tester ça :3
