Could you elaborate on this? Do you now how the design could look like or it is just an idea? AFAIR during the discussion of OpenSynergy's original v1 spec your point was to separate something that we call 'controls' now to reduce the command data size and make command handling less error prone. On one hand if don't really see any difference in params vs controls it would for sure make sense to remove one of the two. On the other hand I'd of course like to avoid moving back in forth, especially when it comes to such a major driver rework. > > So, I'm thinking about what should be the difference between params > and controls.
