Yes we're kinda modeling this to be an open source version of the
KRC2.  Essentially so that anyone can put one together themselves if
they wish.

So imagine it kinda like the KRC2 (except with an OLED display) and
the hood is up so people can cheer and jeer about how it works and see
things get updated and change.  Not to mention that if they want to
try and help they can get access to the code and make improvements
that everyone can take advantage of.

There is a section on the project page where if someone finds an issue
they can submit their issue.  This is "the list" that keeps getting
talked about so much as far as K3 development stuff.  On this "the
list" will be public so that anyone who wishes to can put up their
issues.  These issues can then be assigned to people and updates can
be put into these issues.  In other words if another user finds
another way to replicate the issue they can add that information to
the issue.  As well when a developer makes a change they can post the
status of their work to that issue and anyone who wishes to be
notified regarding changes to any issue can subscribe and receive an
email on any new information.
