Happy Easter to all
Looking for enclosures, i've found  that some of them i'm already using, could fit to maxi/mini dimensions with a little help from OLIMEX
http://www.italtronic.it/prod.asp?seg=2&cat=3&prov=link
A suitable box for maxi/mini could be the 6M size which  can support three boards as follows
Base board: 87,2 x 103,2 mm
Mezzanine board: 58,9 x 102,7 mm
Face board: 42,2 x 102,3 mm
Leave the face board for customization (leds, buttons, sticker etc)
Mezzanine space can fit maxi/mini board (54,6 x 94 mm) if Olimex could give this extra space of 4,3mm (54,6 to 58,9) in their board and face their CON1,UEXT and side buttons up (or do not populate at all)
Furthermore, MOD-IO board (80 x 100 mm) could be stretched a little bit to  87,2 x 103,2 mm to fit the base board space. Finally analog inputs should be placed in parallel to digital I/O connectors.
It would be great if MOD-RS485 circuit could also fit inside
Besides the fact of convenience, a din rail mount box will give imx233 a professional look

Olimex what do you think  ;)
