That would be the easy way!
Well actually I would like to work with a programmer design that I might
integrate into my future projects.  My time is offered as a stepping stone
to get me involved in developing a programmer.  If their is no project, and
nobody with a need, I would not have the motivation to do it.
Besides, if I integrated one of the existing programmers I see all over the
place, such as David Taits LPT or the defunct serial ITU design or ... they
all deal with Serial or LPT, and if I want a product for the future, I
should be looking at what we will need.

Best Regards,
Giles
