It looks like you have a JTAG connector on there - please keep that.
Of course - it's needed for initial programming.
The CPLD you had on the last board, XC9572XL is a bit long in the tooth,
perhaps?

I will use it again. It was already old when I decided to
use it. It has 5V tolerant inputs.

Being a long time Eagle user, I'll chime in too. Most responses from
KiCAD advocates miss the mark on the fundamental issue. Sure the
features are converging and I have no doubt KiCAD will catch-up. It has
already surpassed Eagle in many feature areas. But people who routinely

Dave Bridgham and I have been using KiCAD for our stuff, and we're pretty
happy with it.
Here are a few bits: this is just data, I'm not trying to convince anyone to
use it - the points about 'complex tools one is already very used to' are
very good ones.

That was possible with Eagle 5 (and probably earlier), but is no longer
necessary since Eagle 6, as the native file formats (schematic,

The thanks was for your effort. The hope that it works out was to say
that I hope that you decide to make some more and sell them, which seems
Sorry I don't recall his name, but wondering what the progress is on the
11/70 version of this. Raspberry pi, functional front panel with
blink'n lights which functions like the 11/70.
My back archives are in a bit of a scramble, so can't search it either,

the injection molds to work.
