Now that the footprints for most of the Flex Modules are set, we will begin producing libraries for various EDA tools. We will support DipTrace, Eagle, KiCAD, and maybe others. We plan to support Fritzing and Cynthia(Cindy) and I will be releasing breadboard demo designs for it assuming we can make decent SVG images for the Flex Modules.

I'll put some effort into cleaning up schematics and producing PDFs to make it easier to view from the web. We will also produce a datasheet for each board. The BOMs are complete for the new Flex Modules and we will be testing them in the next few weeks as they come in.

In between Flex Module board testing/redesign work, we will be working on testing jigs and demos as we can. I am getting quotes from the distributors and I'll also be talking to manufacturers to try to negotiate prices further. By the end of March we should be selling Flex Modules again.
