Rewriting CSP processes.... CERN expertice on Metastability

Hi,

Bob: this is a response to some mail on some csp/occam related mailing list.

This is indeed one of CERN's expertices.

The group at CERN knows how to design high-frequency boards
that work reliably.

If you want to contact the experts at CERN directly, try:

Some answers may be for free...
others may cost you (a lot)...

Cheers,
