Old project update

Good news this morning. Our friends in Rennes actually succeeded in decoding and displaying several frames of video using our new chip. This shows that about 75% of the IC functions in at least one mode. There are a just a couple of major functions that haven't been excercised yet. Of course, now they need to buckle down and start checking all of the nooks and crannies of the ICs and those obscure functions that while necessary in a real system either don't directly influence the major operation of the IC or are just yet another mode that the IC can operate in. Lots of work left before we can actually sell any ICs but still "refreshing" to see early good news.
