Rockbox Player - Project to design and build a Free/Open hardware audio player

Hello :-)
Next week I will buy material to make the Custom_secondary_board, I would like to know how many developers want that board, I can buy material, make PCB and assembly it, then I can send it by mail to worldwide. Please answer to this message.

I don't have the board designed yet but I hope to finish it, right after I have the material on my hand.
Now is also time to buy the development board. Also buy the LCD+carrier board and the JTAG cable, from Sparkfun, as I did.
Very soon we can start coding :-) :-)

Recently I am being reading about Arduino and others Open Hardware projects :-)

I know a thing or two about electronics, but when things get to having more than a couple ICs, things get WAY out of hand for me.
Example attached.

Why did you post that message? :-) :-)
As you can read on wiki page of the project, for this prototype, we don't need to care about power circuits, as we will buy that already made on the development board.
Do you have any question about hardware of Prototype?

version control system
I would like to start coding and have the program online for public access, like RockBox have. Anyone can advice a good service for that? - Sourceforge? Google code?
I am new to this technologies, I need to read some tutorials :-)

Since you're talking in a rockbox forum I can only assume you're talking about rockbox code here, and then I suggest you post your patches in a patch tracker entry to get people to test it, review it and commit it as soon as it fits.

Bagder, the first think I will do is the bootloader, working with u-boot. What do you suggest me to do? Until now we are just 2 developers(who will buy development hardware and code on it), me and Spark. How will other people test It If they don't have hardware to test it?
