New platform for ACP
Last month, Fredi Aschwanden stopped working on the Coldfire motherboard. Rodolphe Czuba and an enterprise called "Wilhelm Electronics" have proposed solutions. Finally, Wilhelm Electronics' project has been choosen by ACP members because it will be realized more quickly. Actually, concerning the hardware, a platform providing 316 MIPS already exists. It will need some modifications in order to be TOS compatible. ACP members will take a decision during October.
