Does any softdevice support Mesh, per BLE5?

[Mitch996]

Hello, I'm pretty sure the new BLE 5 will come out soon and it will integrate the mesh. And if mesh needs to be done at a protocol level, it must be the softdevice.

So, any softdevice so far support mesh? Or at least, any plans?

I'm usre nrf52840 support BLE5.

So I take it you didn't really look into that github project I mentioned... doesn't matter.

Anyway, latency? At this point I don't really care because like you said I'm using it for the water meter kind of application... so yea, 2 hours maybe a problem, or even 10 minutes, but 5? Not really at this point, I don't know if things will move toward the demanding direction.

So far I got a 10 nodes network working in a "clean" environment, meaning little wifi and other stuff and the latency is acceptable (<30s usually, my methods are quite primitive), I'm migrating it to another platform right after I can propagate short messages through out the network. Because of the hasty migration, I don't have time to do a more in-depth gathering of all specs.
