Okay, I'll keep you up to date through this list.
Larry sent me another email saying that he is going to check 
whether or not 10 units wide is possible. 8 units was the 
widest so far. If limited to 8 units, a separate 2 unit 
wide control center panel could be done, holding the keypad 
and LCD. Hmm...

Well, two digital modules are on their way, the MIDI->CV and 
the sequencer module.

Same here. I like the ergonomics of Colin's original panel 
(sans the SF font, that is ;P ). Knobs on the left, control 
on the right, nicely fit under the LCD. My idea is to keep 
this layout, but use MOTM style knobs (but smaller ones), 
only white printing, maybe other knobs, other leds (as 
found on the MOTM panels), etc.

It's still very vague. But everyone joining this deal has 
his/her say of course.
