Compliance with GPL license: request for updated firmware source code

[arthurgeek]

Hello Nuphy Team,

⁤I recently purchased the Gem80 keyboard and I noticed the release dates of new firmware updates available in binary form on your website and the dates of the source code available in this GitHub repository do not match.

⁤As the QMK firmware is released under the GPL license, source code for all distributed software versions must be provided.

⁤This requirement is not only a legal obligation but also an important aspect of being a good citizen within the open-source community.

Failing to do so could have serious consequences for both your users and your company.

Therefore, I strongly recommend you to make appropriate changes in this repository as soon as possible by providing the corresponding source code for all firmware versions that you had distributed in your website.

By doing so, not only will you meet your legal obligations, but you will also build trust within your user community.

FWIW, there has been discussions about this with the Air75 V2 here - qmk#21949

This is very important, especially for Gem80. The changelog lists "Optimized debouncing algorithm" while this repo still seems to use the old debouncing method.

Does the code in this repository work? I tried pulling it, but the chibios submodule points to a nonexistant commit, and force updating it to latest causes compile errors.

git submodule update --init --recursive
fatal: remote error: upload-pack: not our ref a29eefa36b3378b03be509d09c530cb86ffc049f
fatal: Fetched in submodule path 'chibios', but it did not contain a29eefa36b3378b03be509d09c530cb86ffc049f

Forcing an update with git submodule update --remote --force --init --recursive pulls down the latest commits of the submodules, but then compiling fails:

New 2.1.0 firmware versions are out, but the source doesn't seem to be updated for that on most of the keyboards?
