I want to post this website link - as a reference for Examples, Code, Projects, Shared Notes, etc - on STM32, Stm32f103, Stm32f407, Stm32f4Discovery, etc.

and next week someone else will make a STM32 website, and next week ....

and soon we will all be scouring 47 websites to see if there is info relevat to our problem.

I have NO INTENTION WHATSOEVER of participating in a secondary website.

Unfortunately it doesn't appear to have any of these things, why wouldn't you just participate here?

It seems that I AM also participating here.

I have only been here for 2 days - and left Code for 1 Project.

I have put many projects into the Atmel and Linux and otrher groups/sites in the past also.

-Sorry but, STMicros isn't letting me to write WebPages for their site yet ...

Yes, but your first post is an astroturfing one, to which Erik's response was basically why do we need yet another forum.

Having you're own project page is great, but I'm not convinced the community needs another forum. Getting forum traffic is difficult, getting people to answer questions is even harder, most forum participants come focused on their own problems and then leave. If you have some gravitas here you might stand a better chance of attracting traffic to your own site.

ST has a very open policy on this site, providing you aren't hawking competing silicon. The site is also regularly spidered by Google. Post something here you're pretty much assured a high ranking search result.

why on earth would you want to write web pages related to the STM32 here or elsewhere?

anything essential can be written in a post

Who is 'astroturfing' ?

I just want to present a site with a list of projects.

- As is the intention for my forum.

I don't have the bandwidth to support a forum like yours.

I can find very little Code on your site - and I want to provide a direct resource with assorted projects - like the kinds that I want/need to find - but can't - for other Engineers.

I am in the process of developing development boards using the stm32f4xx chips - and so the reason for my questions.

And, I hope to present them to the community soon.

By the way - can you or anybody at STM answer my question ?

A simple Design/Code solution for Usb MSC on its Stm32f4Discovery Board like on the Stm32f103 Firmware and the Stm3240g Board Firmware ? 

It looks simple enough - but my few weeks of experience on Stm32 is not enough to know all of the catch-yas and Register issues.  I have USB working - but the SDCard is not recognized or communicating - or ...  Why does STM not provide this Code solution for its Stm32f4Disc Brd ?

I hoped that STM would be open to all of this.

Why sooo picky ?

ps - I am an Embedded Robotics Engineer,

With about 20-30 years embedded experience - through: 6500, 68000, HC11, PIC, Atmel, LPC, Xilinx, etc.  Besides, Linux Realtime Kernel work, etc.

the forum is not ''ours'' it is a user forum, maybe, maybe not, monitored by ST

thus what ST would be open to is irrelevant

Why sooo picky ?

 

what we (the users) object to is someone trying to make the hunt for info take longer than needed by spreading it over many places

I don't have anything constructive to contribute to that topic, this is a user forum, gauge interest in your topic accordingly. If you have to kick threads there probably isn't a lot of information or interest. Want to talk to someone at ST, contact your local rep or FAE, I've always found them quite responsive. I neither work for, nor represent ST, my opinions are my own. This is not my site, I just participate, along with a few dozen other members who also contribute frequently.

A couple of people are posting about the USB firmware library, start there, and the CZ site that has coded some solutions. The F2 and F4 implementation are mostly identical.
