The quad LPG board can be built half-populated, no? A dual board wouldn't cost much less. Meanwhile...

Thomas obviously worked hard on the quad board. It seems like a stretch to ask him to take on the tasks of designing a new board, ordering a small test run (for quality control), testing it, and then organizing a separate "group buy", ordering the PCBs, and shipping them. The return is pennies per hour of labor, if not zero.

No disrespect to the original poster, but I wonder if people realize how much work goes into creating and delivering PC boards.
