I agree that people should acknoledge others and the list when things 
change.

Since we have been talking about the schematic and the general 
excersize of taking an unknown schematic and turning it into a 
workable board, this particular thread does not have to die.

IF, the schematic was done and the basic circuit looked workable to 
my general overview, I would considder making the board as a favor to 
another hobbiest.  Many of us need a board to be made before we can 
get a mahcine running that will make boards.  The old Catch-22 
problem.

Anyway, it is only good manners to inform people that the job has 
already been assigned.  This need not be the whole group, but 
certainly those who have sent direct e-mails.

In the case of this project, I'm curious what it is for and what it 
will do.

And, since I already found flaws in the schematic (I have no doubt 
whatsoever that Stefan will find them as they were simple) I did not 
want to get involved in the enginnering of the project.

But, all that said, if someone does push it forward, I would be 
interested in seeing what it looks like, and the errors found.
