The usual open source reasons, time and interest, and maybe money. If someone provides the usb-knowledge (or firewire, adat, ... etc.) I'd be happy to have it included, and I assume others would not mind. Or, others might include it. I encourage people do their own versions. > Most chipsets these days have support for both port types. It would be > very useful if the schematic provided tracks for both ootb.

I think the most valueable contributions would be . a good set of specs to aim at (I cannot provide that) . hw and sw knowledge . testing and evaluation, and equipment for that . prototype boards for testers . components, chips and mundane things like that . cummunication, git-repo, webserver, mailing list, ... If someone wish to contract me to work on this, I'd be happy, but that is not a requirement.
