Well, when we first started talking I was actually on vacation.  So a lot of the
initial discussion between you and Keith I was unable to join on in.

You and Keith have a huge lead on me, in that you both do this everyday.  So I
have spent most of the last 6 months trying to learn HDL and various aspects of
hardware design.  Everytime I learn something new, I have a new question for
you.  I have gathered quite a few over the last 6 months.  However, I have
answered a lot of my own questions just by learning more and more.  Also, your
thesis (which is great btw) has answered quite a few of them too.

I just didn't want to "bother" you, because unlike Keith I didn't have anything
to help your thesis, only questions about HDL and the like.


By the way, what are you planning to do with MBChess?  Are you going to continue
to develop it, or is this a project your done with?  Did you have to give the
FPGA back, or do you still have it?  Any plans on this front?
