Not yet, doing pipecleaning of the Novena flow based on Pauls writeup
right now. Then I'll start trying to talk to the noise board.

BTW: I've added a link to Pauls writeup on the front page of the
Cryptech wiki.

EEPROM? Sounds a bit weird. Flash sounds more reasonable.

My idea was to have an 8-pin 100-mil header connected to the signal that
is also driving the LEDs to allow easy data out interface. Possibly even
nine LEDs/pins to have 8 bit data + clock signal.
