Why? That effort can be revived. My guess (without knowing the whole story) is that it didn't go anywhere because it doesn't make economic sense for people to download gerbers and order prototype PCBs to hand-solder by themselves. If I'm right, then for this to go anywhere, it would be necessary to get funding, build a certain number of boards, and then sell them. I don't know if this is possible to do as part of an Apache project (my guess is it's not) so physical hardware boards might need to be a completely separate effort. Nathan
