This package is a snapshot of the source code for the OSDCU hardware design
as well as a few generated files corresponding to the Gerber file set that has
been sent out for PCB fabrication as "OSDCU rev 0".

Please note that this hardware design is *absolutely untested*: we have just
sent the gerbers out to fab and it will be 4 weeks before we even get the PCBs
back to see if the parts fit the footprints, let alone whether the circuit
actually works.  (We have opted for such slow turnaround on the PCB fabrication
to reduce the cost: we are doing this during very hard economic times.)
However, we are releasing this snapshot to the world and archiving it
permanently in accord with the principles of open source development.

The OSDCU hardware design is done under UNIX using the uEDA toolkit by
Michael Sokolov.  MCL and OSDCU_??.usch files constitute the ASCII text-based
source code for the hardware design; the uEDA tools compile PostScript
schematic drawings, various BOM formats, the netlist and the pre-layout bundle
of PCB footprints from this source code as codified in the Makefile.

Where can one find uEDA?  Check it out with the following command:

cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@ifctfvax.Harhan.ORG:/fs1/IFCTF-cvs co ueda ifctf-part-lib

Notice that there are two modules named in the cvs checkout command above.  The
second is the IFCTF part library which contains the symbol and pinout files
used in this design and which should also be considered part of the design
"source code".

The PCB layout has been done in GNU PCB and is fully contained in the OSDCU.pcb
file; the PostScript print of the board in OSDCU_pcb.ps has been generated with
a pcb -x ps command.
