1,Jun 20 2018 02:06 PM,an official build that supports the AIY kit would be great.,
2,Jun 20 2018 12:16 PM,"FYI I plan to use the ""ReSpeaker 2-Mics (2 Microphone) Pi HAT Speaker Expansion Board for Raspberry Pi"" for audio IO, with a compact speaker. All I am waiting for now is the release of Picroft for the Pi 3 B+.",
3,Jun 18 2018 05:48 AM,"One area I'd like to see Mycroft going is pairing up with other OS projects. Home Assistant is a great start/project but another, automotive area, would be Automotive Grade Linux.  Another would be medical and perhaps a place to really make a difference, assistant to the blind.",
4,Jun 18 2018 04:08 AM,Translation (in french),
5,Jun 15 2018 07:31 PM,"Generally, it would be great to have Picroft work with commercial mic arrays for the rpi like ReSpeaker, MiniDSP and/or MATRIX Creator.",
6,Jun 15 2018 05:50 AM,Enable receiving and transmit audio through ethernet from/to diferent devices and different places to a single picroft installation.,
7,Jun 11 2018 08:53 PM,"Full display support, similar to the Mark II.",
8,Jun 11 2018 07:14 PM,Italian language,
9,Jun 11 2018 03:52 PM,"Provide a short, crisp demo video which gives an overview of all possible usecases/features/benefits  (on a very high Level) will help to increase the adoption.",
10,Jun 11 2018 07:47 AM,Although currently working with a RPi I am not opposed to putting Mycroft on a full Linux machine and using it as the processor.  In the long run the RPi just may not have sufficient processing power to handle a truly elegant AI.,
11,Jun 10 2018 01:22 PM,I have been trying to get Picroft working with the Speed 4 mic array but have not had any luck. Getting this array to work will simplify my setup and use of Picroft.,
12,Jun 10 2018 07:05 AM,"Keeping the underlying OS up-to-date and secure seems like obvious aim, but I would also love to see Mycroft working with Home Assistant.
I am not sure how hard it would be to make Mycroft fully working from docker (audio in/out), but having Mycroft as hass.io addon (docker image) would be really neat.
",
13,Jun 10 2018 02:31 AM,Full German support,
14,Jun 09 2018 11:53 AM,Installing on desktop environment.,
15,Jun 09 2018 08:03 AM,Get it to run on the google AIY voice kit,
16,Jun 09 2018 02:07 AM,"Actually, I think all of these should be priorities, but sometimes you have to choose your battles! ",
17,Jun 08 2018 11:28 PM,"I am a strong believer in buy your hardware for your software. So having a list with micrphones that work pretty well is great. (Maybe some basic (cheap) ones, but also some quality stuff for people who can afford it)",
18,Jun 08 2018 11:25 PM,Add Intel movidius compute stick support to have more local processing and less cloud based processing.,
19,Jun 08 2018 08:23 PM,Make Picroft a program and not an OS so that one can use the RPi in a regular fashion as well.,
20,Jun 08 2018 06:29 PM,"Easier and more straightforward set-up. E.g. use Pulseaudio consistently to allow using the same board to play music and to use DAC HATs more easily. Improve the Multi-User set-up: which commands need to be run as 'mycroft'? Which as 'root'? Which as 'pi'? Pre-configure the image so that multiple users (e.g. mycroft + mpd) can play audio at the same time.

Bottom line: 1. Fix existing issues, 2. Move to Debian stretch, 3. Add more features",
21,Jun 08 2018 04:40 PM,"include kernel drivers for at least the 4-mic (AC108) and 2-mic arrays 

include bluetooth sound input and output so one can use BT mics, speakers and combos.",
22,Jun 08 2018 02:01 PM,In general I think it's important you get a stable and broad base - you can always open up to more devices later.,
23,Jun 08 2018 10:19 AM,"Skills to improve projects of home automation, interaction Which other devices",
24,Jun 08 2018 09:26 AM,Support for self hosting the Mycroft backend and stt/TTS on a server,
25,Jun 08 2018 08:35 AM,"no love for mycroft on linux

atleast you didn't ask about my race",
26,Jun 08 2018 08:31 AM,"I'd like to see a recommended hardware list, besides just a Raspberry Pi board.  What microphones work best with user based history? What speakers work best with user history? Is there anything hardware-wise that helps to provide best results?",
27,Jun 08 2018 08:30 AM,"GPIO pins mic support, USB sound card support, and more out of the box support for other hardware.  ",
28,Jun 08 2018 08:21 AM,Better integration with home assistant!,
29,Jun 08 2018 08:09 AM,"not restricted to picroft, node red integration, Jarbas AI seems to have some basic support. It could make use of its own plugins and could be used as a fallback assistant I believe",
30,Jun 08 2018 08:00 AM,"Specifically, I'm interested I  integration with openelec. My primary use-case for this is to play music via voice command. However this is done doesn't necessarily matter though, but ideally I would like for it to play music from my local Linux server, in addition to music from various services such as Pandora, Spotify, etc. I know there are skills for the music services but I've yet to successfully get them running. I know this all is a bit wishful thinking at the moment :) ",
31,Jun 08 2018 07:31 AM,Home assistant integration would be pefect maybe best via mqtt so other systems can use it too. Mqtt makes such a great common bus for loads of my systems.,
32,Jun 08 2018 07:13 AM,Not tried yet..  no oppinion,
33,Jun 08 2018 06:56 AM,"I haven't read up recently, but the last time I checked it was difficult to determine which USB mic to buy. I'd prefer to buy one online that's small, but has good performance like the Alexa based hardware but that might not be possible",
34,Jun 08 2018 06:31 AM,language support,
35,Jun 08 2018 05:27 AM,"To me, pi rift is a wonderful development t environment to create content and additional intelligent avenues on Microft. I would even pay for picorft Geneva enough incentives, i.e. creator’s App Store? Shared revenue model? Keep up the good work.",
36,Jun 08 2018 05:21 AM,"Running ""test_microphone"" currently yields: 
/home/pi/bin/test_microphone: line 8: mycroft-audio-test: command not found

Documentation is out of date/incorrect (e.g. there's are references in places to an ""arecord"" argument, ""-o"" that doesn't exist) and difficult to navigate from a UX perspective.  

I receive Python traceback errors in the startup script - but have no way to tell if that's because of a misconfiguration or if it's by design.",
37,Jun 08 2018 05:05 AM,Never could get past the mike issue when I tried.,
38,Jun 08 2018 04:48 AM,It`d be really great if you could support the Google AIY Hardware.,
39,Jun 08 2018 04:45 AM,"Can you go Ubuntu Core based and let them take care of HW support here?

Also, the 3's and others are readily available so wouldn't worry too much about the B+. Better to get the AIY support, etc",
40,Jun 08 2018 04:33 AM,French native (if it still don’t) !,
41,Jun 08 2018 04:29 AM,More natural sounding Mycroft would be a bonus,
42,Jun 08 2018 04:26 AM,I'm using a cheap Lenrue Mic/Speaker (wired & BT) that works fine,
43,Jun 08 2018 04:25 AM,Do not feel limited by the hardware. Picroft must evolve and “symbiose” and you must not stop development because of old HW.,
44,Jun 08 2018 04:13 AM,can microphones can be attached via usb? then I would not bother about supporting more,
45,Jun 08 2018 04:10 AM,Slow response and need help in setting command ,
46,Jun 08 2018 04:08 AM,"Performance improvements.  The pi3/+ by itself is a slow platform for S2T2S/skill work to be done on, if it can be just an interface and connect to a more potent instance to handle skills/stt/etc., might speed things up. Not sure how mimic2 performs there, hopefully a bit better.  
The mk1 audio bounty work I've investigated would also work on a pi, ie, look into using ladspa plugins to do things like high pass/low pass filters, compressor, noise suppression, and EQ work to narrow down the voice range, etc. 
Secondary device ability.   Having more integrated multi-device setups would be nice for folks who have more than one device in the home.  Then there's that pesky intercom feature people have asked about. ",
47,Jun 08 2018 04:08 AM,A local server. My ideal voice assistant doesn't need an internet connection.,
48,Jun 08 2018 04:02 AM,Ubuntu Core,
49,Jun 08 2018 04:02 AM,Support other langages ,
50,Jun 08 2018 03:48 AM,"Hware support should be 50% you, 50% rasbian (most people use usb or vtooth anyway). You need to get a Stretch image, but yeah - more guides/options in the config would be good to. HomeAssistant is your instant way-in to using Mycroft to control all kinds of Smart devices (so you don't need to develope your own). ",
