[arm-allstar] Nano Allstar Interface code?

[Larry]

Greetings Doug,

I understand all of You and Dave's comments and realize all the effort 
both of you have put forth to make this a great system.

I like Andy, and I'm sure others who have built or bought hardware all 
sitting at the ready anticipating it's hinted at release with V1.5,

None of us are asking you to release or support something you and Dave 
feel isn't ready.
However since at some point You/Dave had a working model (good or bad).
Some hint about the intended process (block Diagram, flow chart, modules 
it needed to utilize it at all) would at least give us a starting place 
for playing with the interface.
If nothing else we might possibly find a use for it not necessarily 
instantaneous radio control but something useful rather than pitching 
the hardware.
