This is not ment to embarrass anyone, just to be informative. I get request like 
this all of the time, at least 2-3 week. Let me take a second to explain the way 
this works to people who don't know whats going on. 

This was private. It could have been any one of 4-5 I've received in the last week.
I just picked this-one, It doesn't mean anything. <- disclaimer...

What I'm doing is suppose to be part of a pcb-project, dreamed up by
list members. sort'a "we are our modular company - we are our
customers" (thanks Harry). I kind'a got drafted and kind'a enlisted....
however that worked out doesn't matter.

What does matter is I have a lot of stuff to do! I am not a Company! 
I'm one guy. I'm making boards for the list as fast/cheap as I can. I 
will update and release almost any board from my collection but we 
need 15-20 people chipping in to keep the price affordable. To me 
affordable means $10-20. and covers shipping. There is a list. Any-
thing not already on it would be added at the end. I am trying to get a 
board out every 20 days until the first of the year. This should be 
easy now that the Seq2 is almost done.

Right now the list is..

SEQ2 - w/303 slide
Stereo dual x-pan VCA w/eg-lfo, env fol  
ms-20 type hp/lp dual filter w/dual eg-lfo
Dual wave modifier w/ringmod, shaper, sub-oct, inverters
Dual VC ADSR
Super LFO
Dual SV hp/bp/lp filter w/dual eg-lfo

  "Submit the board and confirm orders. (do the 21 day pause - thats 15 work-days) "
  "Members send money to cover thier orders."

> vco555 pcb

I will never do the vco555...sorry. It belongs to PAiA. John said I could 
show my modifications to his vco when I was doing the FatMods. I don't 
think I should sell them. But I am thinking a dual 13600 saw/sq/tri/sine
would be really easy and cheap, low parts count good for newbes.

There will be a few extra vco4s, if you are interested.

> Korg MS20 type vcf pcb

Soon in the next 20 days. - There will be a 21 day wait, from post
to ship.

> LM13600 OTA vca pcb

Very soon! In the next 10 days. Stereo x-fade even! Ditto on the 
21 day wait.

Ok...more than a second. Cya
