Hi y'all,
as my participation at the Mumble in 12 1/2 hours from now may be a bit sketchy due to a family event (watching the latest Star Wars movie with my dad and my niece and nephew), here are my most important comments/questions in advance:

not me, the project.
Or how does that work?!
by doing a hell of a lot of work running around like a headless chicken, and finding individuals with a link to the EU who can be part of a team and can put in a "first project". times... seven. eight.
the way it works is that once you have a first successful project (first NLNet Grant approved), you *can* apply for additional projects (up to 3 more, for a total of EUR 200,000). however because we put in *seven* (actually, nine, two of them we withdrew), that was beyond even that limit for one single person. so we set up separate teams (first-time appliers) and they've all been approved.
just need to check with staf to see how he's getting on.
I don't think they'll give you nearly a million Euros?
quarter of a million, and yes, they have approved *different* parts of the project for a total getting on for quarter of a million euros in donations.
one of the key reasons for that is there are side-benefits for *other libre projects*, not just our one. coriolis2 will get some funding for linking to nmigen. nmigen itself will get some funding for integration / use with ASICs [migen can do ASICs, nmigen cannot - only FPGAs]. the wishbone streaming is independent of the project and will "just happen to create some streaming peripherals as examples that will be both generically useful and also speifically useful for the libre soc" and so on and so on.
Can we put an <a href> list to our project descriptions somewhere we can all access and find?
How much of Master Luke's [see, I'm already in Star Trek mood] infrastructure is directly useful/adaptible for analog/mixed signal design?
But if they do: Sharing is caring! ;-)
And did they dare to fund the totally crazy Man Going His Own Way who's cooking his own silicon, i.e., did David's proposal get approved?
