Re: feedback on MXP board idea

In 2013 3574 used a wiring system based on direct interface boards on the crio, 10 pin ribbon cable, and 8 breakout boards. The ribbon cable carried 8 digital io signals as well as power and ground. The wire-to-board headers were polarized and latch locked.

It's been over a year now, but it was explained to the judges and we were cleared to compete.
