I miss some of the available functionality of earlier revisions of
the BB... a full C64 DSP chipset was available on the OMAP3 but not
the new Sitaras apparently... alas, I am just now getting hip to the
value of the C64 and lack that on my otherwise Mighty Pandas... the
Pandas have Ducati; I think to get better DSP capable SBCs you have
to journey down the Class Aves, Order Falconiformes TI taxonomy branches...

I like the idea, but not any time soon. The community around this
mailing list is still too small to make that practical.
Last January I suggested organizing a field trip to one or more hardware
hacking places of interest. That would have been free and only requiring
an hour or two to attend, but there wasn't enough interest.
A workshop would likely have to charge something to cover costs, and
would probably need a minimum of 5 to 10 people to commit to attending.
We'd need 10 to 100 times more list subscribers to have a chance of
finding that many participants.
The good news is that there are other local organizations that are
already providing this sort of service.
