How to release the .asc files to .pdf file ?

Hi,

This book is great! I'd like to translate it to Chinese, but I'm confused at:

• How to convert the format from .asc to .pdf ?
• How to merge multi files to a single file ?

Thanks.

Add IPv6 training information

Add as next steps to the IPv6 section the following interactive training course:

http://Inforum.internetsociety.org

Improve README file

Add detailed description about the book and resources.

How can I cite this book?

Hello,
Thanks for this book and it is really helpful for someone beginning their work in IoT and WSN.
I would like to cite this book in some documentation I am working on.
Is there any BibTeX citation available or in general a format which I should follow?

Thanks,
Shan

Additional packages for contiki fresh installation

The next packages are needed for compiling and uploading Zolertia-REmote projects using Ubuntu 16.04:

sudo apt-get install python-serial python-pip pip install intelhex pip install python-magic

Cover page image and style missing

The front cover needs image and presentation

License missing

A proper LICENSE file is missing, a creative common share alike should be used

Viewing printf on Z1

I think the info in the info bubble on page 62, 3.5.7 Analogue Sensors, should be made available earlier in the chapter as printf is mentioned early in the chapter but not how to access it.

More specifically:

make login prints to console the output of any printf command in our code

RPL introduction section pending for update

Wrong Indentation level

The following indentation level at 2.asc is breaking the next ones:
https://github.com/marcozennaro/IPv6-WSN-book/blame/master/2.asc#L829

From:
https://github.com/marcozennaro/IPv6-WSN-book/blame/master/2.asc#L855

To:
https://github.com/marcozennaro/IPv6-WSN-book/blame/master/2.asc#L1065

The PDF encoder defaults to follow the indentation taking as reference the previous one.

Missing README page

A README.md (markdown) page should be created with the following:

• Introduction
• Instructions to compile to generate HTML and PDF

[suggestion] installing contiki

Going over p43, 3.1.1, why not provide a one liner to install Contiki.

Have the package installation code block on a file in this repo, or a gist, and have a simple line such as:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marcozennaro/IPv6-WSN-book/master/contiki-install.sh | bash

Cooja simulation not related to gogo6/HE sections

Either move to a different chapter or to an annex section.

Ubidots apps should be a library

In day one and two, the Ubidots application should rather be just a serial-based library.

Book has not glosary terms

IPv6 Address in image seems to be wrong

In file /images/1/image006.png there are four LAN devices connected to two LANs. While the first two devices have correct IP addresses I believe that the other two IP addresses should have a <2001:db8:1:3::/64> prefix as mentioned in the text.

Misleading VMware image download instructions

Section 3.1.2. using a virtualized environment points first to the default Instant Contiki as first option, whereas the rest of the book preferable uses its custom IoT in five days VM. One option is to swap the order, the other is to point which one to download at the beginning of the chapter... or both 😄

Help with MSP430-GCC toolchain

Hi guys,

Following the book to setup Contiki on a Laptop with following details:

• 32-bit Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Trusty Tahr with Jessie/sid

Following the toolchain and dependencies section as mentioned Install-from-sources

this is what I get when I do apt-key command

Executing: gpg --ignore-time-conflict --no-options --no-default-keyring --
homedir/tmp/tmp.aBpmlMxM2u --no-auto-check-trustdb --trust-model always --keyring

For the time being I have ignored this issue and went on to further install the toolchains

for MSP430-GCC I end up have the LTS version and not the development Patch

root@testbed:~# msp430-gcc --version
msp430-gcc (GCC) 4.6.3 20120301 (mspgcc LTS 20120406 unpatched)
Copyright (C) 2011 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
This is free software; see the source for copying conditions.  There is NO
warranty; not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

The thing is I have faced such problems in the Past when I need application on Z1 where the ROM Overflow causes an Issue (when running CoAP+RPL for example) and I found that the LTS version does not allow the ROM changes as the Developement Patch version.

There are some scripts where you can override the toolchain version like these :
ContikiWiki_MSP430X
Version4.7.2

but I cannot get the developpatch nor the New version to load when I do msp430-gcc --version

any pro tips would be appreciated.
