Some quick updates:

- The launch is still on schedule for May 30.  The initial launch will be for the VCU1525 as Bittware is still working to increase the power limit of their board
- It is now time for the lucky people who already have VCU1525's to private message me, so you can receive some pre-release software in the next couple of days for initial testing and to get some feedback on how hard you find the set up process
- An attempt was made (long ago) to negotiate getting a % of hardware sales with Xilinx/Bittware but this was not successful
- The Molex acquisition was a surprise; hopefully this won't affect Bittware's participation in crypto mining
- Keccak will be launched on May 30, and Tribus will be released on June 15, followed by Phi1612/Skunkhash (which are very similar); then Lyra2z, and following that it will be either CN7 or Neoscrypt; suggestions are welcome as to desired algorithms


If you already have a VCU1525 (a real one, not AWS instance), then please message me ASAP to receive your pre-release software.
