Wolfgang, I have seen the Milkymist One; after I found the DMX cores I spent some time browsing the Milkymist site (and the Github repo). It looks like a really interesting project. I think our project's function is a subset of what's possible with the Milkymist One - Milkymist has a DMX interface and plenty of processing power; I see no reason it couldn't do this.
I don't really have any plans to market my DMX controller; this was mainly a fun project for an embedded systems class. I don't really have any audience now, except the professors who graded the project. (If I did market it in the future, I think it would targeted mainly to clubs/discos, small music venues, and maybe larger companies who specialize in concert lighting. A lighting design professor I know at my university also mentioned he thought it could be used in large theatrical productions.)
