Hello,

I am wondering if there are any people interested in working on a
reconfigurable computing project. My hope is to develop a Desktop PC
co-processor to accelerate certain parallel applications. I am a software
developer (student) and I have very limited hardware experiance.

I envision this project would involve a printed circut board with a FPGA, 
RAM and a bus interface to a desktop computer. If someone would be
interested in designing a main board I would like to write software
dirvers and a programming api for it.

I have seen several of these devices for the PCI bus and DIMM memory
module. 
Here are some refrences to similar projects:

What do you think?
Thanks 
Jon Taylor
