The virtual keeper of the concept of Free Software for many years has been the Free Software Foundation.  Many thanks to Richard Stallman and the GNU crew.   http://www.fsf.org/

Our Complex Programmable Logic Devices (CPLDs) are manufactured by Lattice.  Their site contains all of the part data sheets, development tools, examples, and application notes (registration and cookies required).  http://www.latticesemi.com/

Another site with free hardware designs which might be of interest: http://openhardware.net/   Tom Walsh has released a rather splendid tiny GNU/Linux board based on the Motorola DragonBall processor. 

Cadsoft Online®
For new projects, our CAD work is being done using Eagle 4.13 running under GNU/Linux.  We have tried a lot of CAD packages on several operating systems, and this is our choice.  It works well, is stable, and is very cost effective.  For more information look here: http://www.cadsoft.de/ 
   
Diehl Martin has a personal web page at http://freeio.org/diehl/index.html .   Of course he consults for money.  Yes he also plays the tuba.

Monica Martin is responsible for our site photography:  http://monicamartin.com/
