Thanks again for this amazing contribution. I'm sending the info to my mentor so maybe (I doubt it, but just maybe) I'll have this ready for Atlanta. (*cough*yeah, right*cough*  )

One can only hope...this was one of the reasons I released this system shortly after we were kicked from the running for Nats. I was hoping there might be another team crazy enough to try it for Nats...

Yes, it is open. Email or PM me for the edit password (mainly used to keep spammers off of the Wiki)

There was a link in the Wiki under the "Required Hardware" section. You will need to scrounge up the parts to make it with, though.

A JTAG cable comes with the development board.
If you have any more questions, don't hesitate to ask. If you want the IFI drivers in their current, "disheveled" state, just let me know. In fact, if you wouldn't mind cleaning them up...
