[mc1322x] Testing code on Contiki

[Oleksiy Yakimovych]

Hi Mariano,

Thank you for your time.
I don't want to promise but probably in one month I will be able to do  
some testing of mc1322x platform too.
I'll follow you reply below.
Not sure what implementation I'm going to use, maybe both: Freescale  
and RedBee. Freescale is kind of expensive one. Do you know any other  
implementations of mc1322x?

It would be good to have some kind of testing plan. At least to  
describe what was tested already and how and what needs to be tested.

Thanks,
Oleksiy
