Are they any plans to support the Raspberry Pi 5 on the Witty 4 Mini ?

It is possible to let Witty Pi support Raspberry Pi 5 by using pinctl to replace raspi-gpio in gpio-utils.sh. However the priority for this is rather low at the moment.

Given the issues we are now seeing with bookworm is there a plan to do this work? I notice that you released a totally new product, does this mean that the witty pi line of products is being retired?

@msage we will continue maintaining the products we have, and we may also develop new products for Raspberry Pi.

We have rather low priority to let Witty Pi support RPi5, because not so many RPi5 users need Witty Pi. Most of RPi5 users are using it like a desktop computer, and RPi5 has power button too, so...

As for issue that can be reproduced on RPi4, we resolve it actively.

We have upgraded the software to version 4.2 and use the wiringPi again. Now Witty Pi 4 can work with Raspberry Pi 5.
