-* Sleep mode integration +  * Better interface for custom functions 
-* Better interface for custom functions+  * Integration of avr emulator in workflow for testing 
 +  * Better non-microcontroller framework to enable offline testing 
 +  * Switch toolchains to either a makefile based toolchain or platformio 
 +  * Rename repository (currently weatherbox-2) 
 +  * Consider pulling some functions out into a library 
 +  * Clean up repository (moving average folder and examples should be somewhere else) 
 +  * Consider other practices for separating behavior between different versions - maybe surround all of those cases with if statements instead of ifdef, or do both 
 +  * Better logging - perhaps we can create a logging module.  
 +  * Experiment with timer based logic 
 +  * Support for creating dummy data - option to build this out as well 
 +  * Use build flags with the toolchain instead of defining things on the top 
 +  * Reduce global state 
 +  * Remove the LPF module for now - we don't need it 
 +  * Overall, reduce system complexity 
 +  * Add support for running custom commands (and make sure that those commands aren't too heavy). MCU when asserted on another pin should also automatically go into command mode 
 +  * Add better startup check sequence 
 +  * debugWire support 
 + 
 +Goals suggested by previous firmware team: 
 + 
 +  * GitHub Issues 
 +    - Heatbeat packet 
 +    - Time-based sampling 
 +    - Command parsing & Execution 
 +  * Unit Testing 
 +    - Transmit Module 
 +    - Utilities Module 
 +    - Full Integration 
 +  * Error Code Library 
 +    - Appropriate error codes for corresponding unit tests 
 +  * Schema Changes 
 +    - Change sensor data variable types to signed ints 
 +    - Update decryption script 
 +  * Compilation 
 +    - Identify and resolve the warnings given during compilation
