I would love to see some data on this bus, such as:

o What technology? - ECL I guess?

o How many boards can I plug in?

o Does it support arbitrary bus-masters? If so what is the arbitration time?

o What sort of connectors? How many signal/grounds on the bus?

o Is it synchronous or asynchronous?

I guess that will do for now....
