Is there any update on the release of the sbitx, I have been away for a few weeks and haven't seen anything new since you mentioned they would be available possibly over the weekend and that was a few weeks ago I think.

This is very exciting!? I learned about the sBITX project as I was
making plans for getting into HF, so I've been eagerly anticipating the
"ready to ship" state.? While I haven't worked with rpi before, I'm
fully confident in working with beta-status software and I hope to be
able to contribute some improvements.
Are there photos and/or spec sheets available yet for this initial
build?? I'm curious about things like power connectors and other ports.
I concur with another comment that we should wait to start a separate
group for sbitx (or sbitx-hackers) until we see that the volume on this
group is too much.? I learn things on the air by listening to
conversations I'm not participating in, and the same can be true for a
mailing list.
Excitedly awaiting a further announcement,
