• Splinky on adapter v2.0
• Blackpill on adapter v1.1

A new boy in da house

It also adds firmwares for the latest addition to the Bastard Keyboards lineup: the Dilemma!

Note that the Dilemma is still under active development, and the firmwares provided here are only for testing purposes and may be incomplete.

bkb-rp2040 is dead, long live bkb-develop

The support for RP2040 chips (qmk#14877) was merged into qmk:develop! This means that firmwares targeting RP2040-based controllers (like the Splinky) can know be built from the develop branch and don't need to manually track the PR. The bkb-rp2040 branch has been updated one last time after the PR was merged, but going forward, new changes will be made directly against bkb-develop.

Additionally, support for emulated EEPROM for RP2040 (qmk#17519) has just been merged. This means that it is now possible to build Via-enabled firmwares for RP2040-based controllers.

What about Vial

These recent changes need to be merged into qmk:master before they can make it to Vial. This means that Vial support will be available only after the next QMK quarterly release.

Keymaps

• Use the default keymap for Skeletyl, TBK Mini and Scylla.
• Use the stock keymap for the Charybdis (3x5 and 4x6).

Vial-aware keymaps are also available for all keyboards (only for Elite-C and Blackpill).

Changelog

In addition to the above changes, this release also fixes a couple of bugs:

• With the via keymaps for all sizes of the Charybdis: an infinite recursion that would prevent the keyboard from working altogether (3866050). Note that this bug had already been fixed in the previous release for the vial keymaps.
• With all keymaps for all sizes of the Charybdis: a missing invocation of the pointing_device_init_user() callback that would prevent that user-level function to run (729bfdb).
