Obijuan or somebody,

I apologize if I am writing a message in English.  However, can we update a few files within the FPGAwars website to work with our "new" Alhambra II?

Obijuan/icebot 
3D printable stand for the Alhambra:
one with text
one without text

Thank you very much in advance

Regards,
Wm

Hi William,

I'm responding in English as this my native language.  I do speak / write a little Spanish so I will attempt a translation for the mahorit 

I understand your frustrations but to be fair to the team the website is not their primary focus.  This is an open source development - they aren't paid for their time.  

The primary focus is to develop the software to a point where it works reliably.  Once the software foundation is well established then time can be spent on updating the website and documentation.

I have found a 3D printable stand for you on Thingiverse for the Alhambra 2.  I haven't tried it but I intend to shortly.  I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work.


If you want a stand without text I can probably design something for you in Freecad within reason.

If there is anything else I can do to assist you please let me know.  

Kind regards

Alex

Hi William,

Respondo en inglés, ya que es mi lengua materna. Hablo/escribo un poco de español, así que intentaré traducirlo .

Entiendo tus frustraciones, pero para ser justos con el equipo, el sitio web no es su principal objetivo. Este es un desarrollo de código abierto; no se les paga por su tiempo.

El objetivo principal es desarrollar el software hasta que funcione de forma fiable. Una vez que la base del software esté bien establecida, se podrá dedicar tiempo a actualizar el sitio web y la documentación.

He encontrado un soporte imprimible en 3D para la Alhambra 2 en Thingiverse. No lo he probado, pero tengo la intención de hacerlo pronto.

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1305273

Si quieres un soporte sin texto, probablemente pueda diseñar algo en Freecad dentro de lo razonable.

Si hay algo más que pueda hacer para ayudarte, házmelo saber.

Atentamente

Alex

Hi William! You can write in English whenever you want. I think that even though the list was created for the Spanish-speaking world, the few of us who participate are comfortable with both languages, and from my point of view, the important thing is that we all contribute, so please never hesitate to write/reply, etc.

Regarding the projects you mentioned, I wasn't here yet, so I don't know what stage they're at, to be honest. The website itself is somewhat neglected since the direction of the community has changed, and I think the site remained in a state of initial momentum.

In any case, Obijuan will be able to answer this better.

Best regards, and as I said, never hesitate to suggest things in English!

Thanks!  I really appreciate that Obijuan decided to fork the FPGAwars website into Spanish and English websites.  I found out that his website is really awesome, how limited my Spanish comprehension is.  I went through the translation page.

Furthermore, I already ordered two RC servos and two O-rings for Obijuan's icebot project, the Alhambra 2, instead of the previously mentioned original board.
Thanks again,
William
