So has anyone downloaded the source code for the Panasonic radios yet?

i was going through the Setup > General > Software Information screen and read that after 3 years of delivery, Panasonic will release the source code to any interested parties.

Well it’s been 3 years now.

It would be kind of fun to see what anyone has done anything with it.

 

It might of changed in 3 years. You could always try the email....

 

I did find one car source code download.
Similar to above but it ends in "e01vdl56/"
Not sure what sound system it's about.

has a bunch of stuff about Advanced Linux Sound Architecture - Utilities

even with an I7 with SSD drive it's taking some 45 min to unzip all 54,000 files from one of the down loads.

Sample of a demo code:

does this mean anything to you guys?
