Hey David, would you be interested in my putting together a PCB for the FluxEngine? Happy to contribute it back to the project.

That's very kind of you, but I suspect it's probably not worth it --- the main point of the project is to use an off-the-shelf development board rather than needing custom hardware. A custom board would essentially need to either duplicate the development board, with two PSoC5 processors, one of which being used for the programming interface, or use an alternative programming system. Plus I'm not sure how many people will be willing to hand-solder a 68-pin surface mount or BGA component... do you know of any services which provide small-run PCB manufacture and assembly?

I am, however, a little worried that the dev kits are no longer in stock at Cypress and I hope they're not being deprecated...
