[sdiy] Trades?

[Ian Fritz]

sdiy is for hobby folks designing and building synths. Selling 
specialized components, cleaning out your stash, short board runs, I 
would say are consistent with that. And I've done all of those. Selling 
completed modules I would say not, because there is no design or 
building involved by the intended purchaser. And remember, sdiy was 
split off from AH for good reason.

Trading, I personally don't care one way or the other, so long as it's 
diy projects. There won't be much opportunity for commercial vendors' 
intrusive involvment along those lines, I don't think.

All IMHO, of course.
