I also notice that cy.c hasn't been updated for over a month. Should I infer from this that: A) There are known problems but work is not currently taking place, or B) There are no known problems, or at least not serious ones, and that the code is still considered "alpha" because not enough users have tested it? or, C) The "alpha" designation is now out of date? If the answer is B or C I would probably get the 8 port board and try it out. If anyone knows a good place to get the board, I'd appreciate hearing suggestions. Thanks.
