[sdiy] testing...testing...

[Roman Sowa]

With all due respect, I seriously doubt it is possible to organize this 
group to colaborate on ASIC or polysynth design. I have seen it fail 15 
years ago. Everyone here has some kind of a job and other duties, mostly 
focused to keep their buisnes from drawning.
While this kind of project requires full time involvement, for at least 
few months or even years. And best if all the people work in the same 
building, or at least one city, so they cood meet frequently and discuss 
over whiteboard. That's how I see it.
I will not even touch the financial aspect of it.
