Why not? The project can "re"born. With regards to the spec, it would be
necessary to bring up a team quickly, I develop on microcontrolers since
not poorly of years, on PIC, ATMEL and MOTOROLA more particularly, in
the domain I little to help, but the spec this is really not my thing.

particulièrement, dans le domaine je peu aider, mais les spec c'est
vraiment pas mon truc.
