It's pretty easy to miss, but there's a link called Latest Groups at the bottom of the page, if you don't want to wait for a direct link :) Think you can also join groups from your own profile but I suppose groups could be easier to find.

Interfacing a cmos camera sounds like an interesting idea. I'm pretty sure Leon has already interfaced a camera to a XC-1 and I think I saw his post over at Xmoslinkers.org

I'm just thinking about it. I've got a couple of the TCM8230MD cameras I'd like to try, and have designed a PCB. I've also got a C328 camera; that has a serial I/F and would be a lot easier.

@leon_heller where do you by those cmos modules? toshiba was available at sparkfun, but no more. and the source for c3808 is unknown to me.

I got mine from Sparkfun a few weeks ago. I got two, you could have one of them.

I think the C328 is quite easy to obtain:

is one supplier. I got mine from them.
