Bob, 

I will send you and Lester the .pof files for Mercury_v3.1 and Penelope_v1.6
via email.  The SVN will be updated soon by Phil.  

HOWEVER, be advised that an entirely new firmware set (including Metis v1.7,
Mercury v3.2, Penelope v1.7, and Ozy_v2.2) will be released soon and I will
ensure that .pof files (as well as .rbf) files are included in the firmware
update package that I will shortly be passing to Phil for his review,
acceptance, and release/posting. 

As for Ozy, you don't load .pof files for Ozy/Magister by using the Quartus
II "Active Serial Programming" mode that you like to use for Mercury and
Penelope updates with your blaster cable.  Ozy/Magister firmware is done
differently.  The current version of Ozy/Magister firmware is v2.2 and that
version should should show up automatically for Ozy/Magister when you run
your PC program.  

The relevant file for Ozy/Magister is Ozy_Janus.rbf and that file is
included in the PC program download folder that each PC program developer
puts together and the Ozy_Janus.rbf file gets loaded into Ozy/Magister
automatically when you run the executable PC program;  that happens each
time you run the PC program from a fresh power up of the Atlas bus.

needs them so he can use my "Simplified Routine" for firmware programming
with his Blaster.

is that for?
