Yep. That is their model. They can have a lead time on some parts. That is the reason for trying to setup stock at CircuitCo. That way you can get them in smaller quantities and get them when needed. CircuitCo can also buy them in larger volumes.

That's a great news. I was thinking about asking one of the
traditional OSHW distributors like Sparkfun or Adafruit for adding
appropriate connectors to their offer, but now I see it will not be
necessary. Thanks!

Well, we can do that as well. Maybe have CCO order in bulk and then deliver to each distributor.

Sparkfun passed on the BeagleBone.

If you're planning to sell the connectors, I'm not going to go in your way.

Feel free to get in my way whenever you like!

Does the flyingBone include any copper traces, or is just a protoboard
cut to size?

28

Seeed studio says: " GBS and GTS files are missing.", could you upload those to github as well?

Fixed, thanks.

Gerald,

Thanks for that info. I had gone through MLE's website and it only
looked like they provided samples. I tried contacting their
distributors but no-one was any help. But if MLE is who I should talk
to, that is where I will go.

Thanks!

Sudhir,

FlyingBone is a cape prototyping tool and the github repository
contains only files related to it. If you would like to build a cape,
you definitely should familiarize yourself with the BeagleBone SRM. It
has all the schematics and connector and pin descriptions. You can
find all the docs for Beagle boards at beagleboard.org.

regards,
j.
