Hi Michael,
I mean the tech-will-save-us layout, not the original one with the Atmel
chips, sorry for the confusion.
About the breakout board, there are a few companies doing interesting ones.
The now classic board from kitronik, the upcoming stuff from protopic, and
rkonlinestore has even made
There is a git hub repo with gerber of the main board, and it claims
(I only say claim because I haven't downloaded them to check personally;
unlike the gerbers) to have Altium, Eagle and Kicad files with the
schematics etc on them.

Carlos,
As I understand it (from Jonny), the BBC intends to release these
designs but, y'know, gotta have some bureaucracy... ;-)
Jonny is definitely the person to ping about this.

Carlos,
Which original design do you mean? The actual board distributed to a
million kids or the proto type microbit - proto:bit - that I did as the
original work that enabled the partnership etc? (ie the stuff I talked
about at Pycon UK last year - device, software stack, original DAL,
website,
As far as I understood there was still talks with the BBC to release the
original design as well, is that still ongoing?
Also, it would be quite awesome if there was also a OSH breakout board for
the edge connector, it could serve as a base for projects to interface with
microbit (like the Arduino
At last!
Done!
