Let me share some of the things I am currently working on for the TULIP.
First of all, do not expect any new firmware updates anytime soon, unless there is a serious bug. I have been working on a file system in FLASH memory to handle ROM images and decided it is better to first get things organized and write down what I am going to do. Some time has now been spent on writing the documentation. After that I will go back to coding again. In the meantime I will be moving to another house and switching to a new computer, so please be a bit patient. At least I am now retired and work does not interfere anymore.

Finally after some busy weeks at work and a business trip to Gottingen I was able to do my clumsy soldering last weekend, it all worked as advertised (except for a backwards connected LED that was easy to fix, duh). It of course left me hungry for more features, but I will be patient. There are some experiments I wanted to do that the adapter board is making easier for me to do and will keep me busy while you do your thing
