Swing and a miss.
The NDA will be because specific product IP is needed for me and ISA to do the voodoo we do so well. One can only go so far with visuals and conjecture based on the 1 & 2 chip reference boards and schematics. Obviously many things by necessity have to be different with the 8-chip setups. I've read the dev and DIY threads from start to finish before. Those are what pointed me at the various things I've been bringing up here as problems being seen sound a lot like what those threads covered. Somewhere between a reasonably good start and scaling to production systems seems that a lot of A1 company designers fell victim to the NIH attitude and tried to re-write the rules. Even the Technobit designs are still being tinkered with and discovered (and nice job on the power/speed work in their part of the Forum Losh...) but then that seems like what they were made for: stand-alone miners and tinkering toys, not piled in a common box as systems.

As with Hashfast, Black Arrow and others in the A1 game things for them have moved past the community-only aspect. Business is business and you can't sell systems unless you can differentiate your product from the others and that takes IP. Or at least systems that work...
