oh, I can help you with firmware hacking. Just we both have atusb and
avr raven sticks. But too many things need to be done.

I think with the avr raven sticks we get an huge increment of users for
this stack.

Okay here's the deal:

I wait until you finished the atusb firmware hacking, then I will check
how possible it is to port the atusb to the raven stick. Maybe I can
comibine it with some course at my university so I have _really_ time
for it.

I could try it to market it as "master project", but seems that is not
science enough. (And I would be fast done with that.)
