I'm going to a TI tech day this week about porting u-boot for a custom 
board with a Sitara processor.

http://www.ti.com/ww/en/techdays/2012/docs/orlando_abstracts.pdf

I'll check with them then post up whatever they hand out if its not 
commonly available.  If anyone has an questions or anything they might 
have some engineers on hand and I can get answers.

This processor seems like a good fit to me especially with the open 
design files.  I don't have access to orcad anymore but I noticed they 
have the board files as well.  Would it be possible to take their routed 
design and just strip out the routing to the unused features but keep 
the difficult routing for the ram?

I was thinking it might be a quick way to get a board drawn up for this 
processor.  Any thoughts?
