Cool board. :)

I noticed from the pic it uses a Xilinx XC9536XL CPLD.  This part is being discontinued
by Xilinx, but I placed an order for a minimum qty (~230) along with a minimum order for
9572XLs (also being discontinued) so that I can continue making CoCo SDCs.

I’ll end up with about 100 XC9536XLs that I won’t need and was planing to sell off, so
if anyone does do a run, they can get the CPLDs from me if they’re having trouble sourcing them.

Let me know if I can help with getting some produced if Alex shares the gerbers,  I’d like to get one
or two of these myself.
