you can add yourself to the tech mailing list using the mailman
interface at https://lists.cryptech.is/listinfo/tech

have you managed to sort through https://wiki.cryptech.is/ at all?  we
are reorganizing, but you should be able to find some discussion of
structure.  and of course all the source, designs, ... are stashed
there, see https://wiki.cryptech.is/browser.

we're currently focused on getting the software side migrated to the M4
on the 'bridge board' while the hardware side is working on adding the
FPGA layout to the bridge board, so we can cut off the bridge and let
the board float freely on the ocean as the 'alpha board' :)

joachim is still tuning the TRNG implementaion, and karen is threatening
a QA analysis thereof.

so sniff around and see what part would interest you.
