Offtopic: I meant, that I already have readed the basics of those
projects. I'll of course continuosly search more information of those.

Yep, sure, I readed all the material I quickly found and I'm looking
forward to get more information. But unfortunately at the moment the
RAW material hasn't had anything I haven't already know and to be
honest, the fundamental approach difference between RAW and my
project could mean, that I can't find anything very useful from the
materials. But I'll keep reading that material.
If you think a RAW-based computer or a transputer, where you don't
compile programs to nodes but use fixed software modules inside of
those and design the software using only that fixed set of cell code,
you're designing more or less the same thing as I do.

I already did that.

Thanks.
I also earlier found a DFM design from here (OpenCores), in fact that led
me to announce my project here :-)
