Hello

I have hearing aids, which can be connected to devices that support the
Bluetooth ASHA protocol.
https://source.android.com/docs/core/connect/bluetooth/asha
That protocol is open and somewhat well documented. However, it is only
supported on Android devices at the moment, as neither Linux nor Windows
have chosen to implement it.

The idea is with Bluetooth ASHA, one can stream audio from a computer
directly to a pair of hearing aids. Without Bluetooth ASHA, I'm limited to
using a battery powered, clumsy, sometimes flaky accessory from Cochlear.

 I was wondering if it would be worthwhile to add that to bluedevil, or if
I should ask elsewhere?

kind regards
Stefan Brandmair
