I'll add a section "preorders" (or something similar) to the wiki page.

Schematic and layout data will be published shortly.

The second version does not include a microcontroller. FRNBv1 needed one to control some features of the gyroscope chips (power on/off). All this can now be done throuhg the I2C bus.
