 While being a very successful project for us in its standard configuration, the Venus OS, and compatible hardware platforms can also be the perfect platform for many other projects. Such as:

-===== FAQ =====
+===== Bluetooth Protocol =====
-==== Q1. Why is the Bluetooth API not public? ====
-Making the bluetooth API an official public one would mean that we can’t change it as simply as we can today; and also it means that we’ll get questions about it: bluetooth is not simple. Far more complicated than a serial port.
-And then only our developers will be able to answer them: taking away development resources. Hence we chose to not make the Bluetooth API public.
