Who will promptly tell you to talk to Nik. They're his, not mine. However I
CERTAINLY will be advising him to hold out for good space parts in trade. :)

I might have to see if we can build one or two of these, seems like good fun. I
might even try to see if I can use the MOST RCXs... since the least (0) has
already been done.

To the point of standards extension, I guess I would argue that just getting
this to work right the first (massively public, I know Steve and friends did
this already) time suggests that sticking to type I the first go might be a good
approach. If some wizards want to try their hand at 90s or 180s or
splitters/joiners that's all well and good but if they do not get into the
layout, so be it.

That's my view anyway. Not that I have a lot of street cred here.
