Despite not liking the idea of polls, I'll do one anyway.
The purpose of this poll is to gauge interest in a Renard-595 Converter. The basic purpose of this board is to allow the 595 boards to be controlled through some type of serial port (so that you can get greater distance), and to allow the 595-coop boards to be dimmed (192 brightness levels). Depending on the level of interest (and hence the size of a coop order for the PCB), the cost could be down in the $10-$15 range. This board would allow a 595-coop board to act like a 64-channel dimmer (in other words, you don't lose any of the 595 channels). It is described a little bit more over in the wiki.
