But when the papers finally appear, we may hope for a URL, and
possibly even a translation into English by Wilf or Wouter or
whoever. If that is combined with the circuit, then all's well
that ends well.
In the mean time, various BEAMers seem to enjoy breadboarding
the Great Man's doodles. A much more readable version has already
been drawn by Darrell. Who knows, good documentation may be
`reverse-engineered' before those papers are published :)

A great way to make electronics/mechatronics more popular. Still
the most important aspect of BEAM.
Best,
