Why me? You've got a list. Go ahead and post it. All you need is a generic remote-capable CVS client and you can put up and/or edit all the web pages you want. > o Decide on connector SODIMM seems to be the choice. > o Decide on design tools to use EAGLE is limited to 2-sided boards if you don't register (i.e. pay). GEDA+PCB isn't limited, but doesn't include an autorouter :-( Eagle's autorouter leaves much to be desired. > o Decide on the primary circuit designer > o Decide on other roles Irrelevent. It'll all be in CVS. You want to participate, pick a chunk and work on it. > o Documentation/Website We've got *one* at least. We can postpone this issue for now. > o Legalities/Licenseing/etc... Sigh, yup. > o Debug some boards Wow, it's only one to-do item! Gee, it must be easy then ;-) > o Decide on the features to be included > o Design the circuit I think the only real key here is the power/ground pins on the connectors. The rest would just be ganged together and/or brought out to test points. > PDA CASE (much in parallel with the above) > -------- > o Decide on cost target > o Decide on process/material > o Get a 3D model designed > o Publish & Review 3D model > o Have a prototype made * Buy one at Radio Shack :-) I want to try making at least *one* with my woodworking tools though.
