Rare project developers

[Alexander Gall <>]

Hi Marcos

I'm finally ready to start work on the 9.11.0 (APS still considers it
as beta but I guess it's good to go for us). They made a major change
regarding the gearbox so I'll have to do some coding to make it work
with our control-plane.  Is it still ok for me to use the RIO
APS2556X?

Regards,
Alex
