Hi,

I am retired computer professional (mainly support duties). Nowadays I am learning programming and electronics. My main interest at the moment are uC. Especially I am playing around with BV513, which is PIC board from http://www.byvac.com . It is programmed with basic. I am interested to write a manual (as hobby - I am not affiliated with Byvac). I just have too much time at my hands.

The question is that I would like to incorporate parts of this AllAboutCircuits to this document. Also I find a lot of good posts in these forums, which would give nice pieces to document.

Could someone in charge give me answer how I can use this material - or not? Hopefully my question makes some sense.

Best Regards
Kari Laine
