From what I've seen, professionals often end up with mistakes in any non-trivial board layout. Posting the trace "cuts" and jumpers or new design files to correct the problem will be an on-going contribution from the designer and users alike. I don't see any reason why an improved version of a previous contest entry can't be posted for the next months contest. If the updated design gets more votes than other entries, it will win again. I don't think Olimex intended to score cards for breaking, but you can always "swiss cheese" a line of vias to make the board easy to break into parts. Again, this is a monthly contest... if your design isn't ready now, submit it when it is. --- James Newton: PICList.com webmaster, former Admin #3 mailto:jamesnewton@piclist.com 1-619-652-0593 phone http://www.piclist.com/member/JMN-EFP-786 PIC/PICList FAQ: http://www.piclist.com -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The list server can filter out subtopics (like ads or off topics) for you.
