Enclosures
There are numerous enclosures being created in all different sizes and styles. The
mechanical design of these enclosures is not being defined by this specification.
The ability of these designs to handle all shapes and sizes of capes, especially when you
consider up to four can be mounted with all sorts of interface connectors, it is difficult to
define a standard enclosure that will handle all capes already made and those yet to be
defined.
If cape designers want to work together and align with one enclosure and work around it
that is certainly acceptable. But we will not pick winners and we will not do anything that
impedes the openness of the platform and the ability of enclosure designers and cape
designers to innovate and create new concepts.
