You got a point there, but I see growing demand for a FAQ on this list.
There are loads of messages that present "new" ideas that have been
discussed on the list long ago, as well as general questions concerning the
homemade link cables and various other extensions (SPinTerface, I2C,
Expander SF..) Most of these questions could be answered with a relatively
concise FAQ, and people eager to develop new hardware could start off where
others have given up instead of reinventing the wheel. A TI-Hardware
Skeptics(sp?) page could have explanations on why the many "ingenious"
ideas that get presented to this list over and over simply don't work, so
we can concentrate on the essential.
