The description on the project is fairly self explanatory (though I did
just add some links to the description to make things easier for folks).
 The place to start would be to grab, and build a firmware image for the
MinnowBoard MAX, you'll note a number of oddities in the build process
including:

- The script is run by sourcing it into your current shell
- The only way to override default values is by editing the script directly
- The help system, and the options, do not follow standard unix styling
(they follow a windows centric view)
- etc

These are examples of things that we want to get cleaned up and fixed by
the end of the summer to make building the firmware more approachable to
our *nix users.

Obviously on Monday applications open and I'd be happy to help you with
an application.
