Fantastic work!

I only have one thing to note, and that would be the addition on the 0.1uF ceramic cap on the motor terminals. It helps keep the noise down for more reliable I2C comms.

Edit:

"See the section on soldering the potentiometer to the OpenServo board for a description of this problem and how to correct it."

We have a sortware correction for this too. We don't have it documented in the wiki yet, and it requires a recompile, but useful to know.

Edit2:

You might want to link these in the TWI testing section:

http://www.openservo.com/APIGuide (it's missing some pages that I am restoring from a backup now)

I haven't done the TWI testing as of yet, I plan to do that when I get some parts from digikey. I'm sure I'll update that quite a bit when I get there. If I'm lucky, that might be Tuesday.
