I agree. It seems we could come up w/ a form factor for a circuit
board that would fit both the MOTM and FracRack form factor.
Rectangular, long side parallel on MOTM, short side parallel
on FracRack. +/-15 volts.

If we had a lot of people interested in MOTM or FracRack panels
we could have a run of screened panels. Otherwise just the circuit 
board that could be mounted behind either.

I've done my own stuff in the past. But nowadays, with a busy job,
two kids and another one on the way, I like to spend my minute
amount of free time actually playing with modules. The one thing
I'm pretty fast at is board stuffing and assembly. 

My wish list:
Juergen's Scanning Interpolator
Juergen's SSM2040 clone
Juergen's Morphing Programmer
Juergen's Frequency Shifter
Joachim's dual mode ARP filter
tomg's sequencer (yes, board layout looks simple, but I want to
                  build at least five of them)

Basically anything that Paul hasn't gotten around to
offering as a MOTM kit :-).
