[Soekris] Tech manual for 5501

Hi all,

I have recently been evaluating a few 5501-70's running OpenBSD for a 
customer project. I have emailed Soekris several times about the 
availability of a tech manual, ie basic information on connector 
pinouts, I/O voltage levels, currents etc.

To date no-one from Soekris has even had the decency to reply to my emails.

The project we are talking about will use 20-40 of these units as a 
starting point. The potential for future larger orders is great, however 
if I do not get some confidence that Soekris is going to support me with 
this sort of BASIC TECHNICAL DATA, I will be pulling the pin and NOT 
using Soekris hardware in future.

This lack of support is just not good enough. I see from trawling this 
list that many other people have been requesting the same information 
for a long time and it is still not forthcoming.
