Re: CRIO ARDUINO INTERFACE

I'd like to get some javadoc stuff done before i get my new Arduino, so...

-----
Can someone bring up the rule(s) about custom circuitry?
I recall a section on this. I know that as long as it is commercially available, code and circuitry are legal, but what about the arduino perhipherals(protoshields)?
What if I want to make a custom shield that logs data on a microSD card and indicate various things with bright LED's(hypothetical)

PS The shield mentioned above exists here

PPS This shield has a prototyping area, ruling on that please!

PPPS There are other (simpler) alternatives to the hypothetical question(cRio Flash, DIO, etc), I realize this
-----

What about the arduino code? what if you wrote a Serial/I2C read-/write-er and LCD interface? Does this apply in the "Available to All Teams" rule?(Forgive me, I don't remember rule numbers, just the rules.)

-----

What if I use a custom variant of the arduino board? Like a perfboard barebones? I'm pretty sure the basic schematic of the barebones is available on the site...

-----

Not doubting this project, I just want to document this with any rules users may run into.
