[sdiy] The API Lunchbox format

[Roman Sowa]

Instead of using yet another format, why don't we fully adapt the 19'' 
subrack standard that is only partially used by eurorack modular? I mean 
proper backplane with DIN41612 power and signal connectors in the back? 
No clumsy ribbon cables inside that are not really designed to deliver 
power.
This also forces the use of standarized depth, and eject levers in 
front, but I think it's worth trying.

Well, I'm going to do that anyway in my next modular. Anybody join me?
