I saw this blog post last night but haven't had a chance to check out the details. Exciting!

Hello!
Is this just for the NP2 device or the NP1 or what? All I have here is the Netduino and the Mini. The author says the things are available from Github which is a good thing, but what devices are the target? And that means specific ones.

Then that is the problem. I believe I can scare up the tools to rebuild the firmware both of my gen one devices, but at this point I'm facing a sign in a cave.
This does not explain why there are three individuals staring at the firm's address.

Would like to use these, but modifying firmware puts me off. How easy is it and what are the implications (upgrades, etc.)

Netduino is designed for learning, so you can put your own firmware on there and switch back to the official firmware anytime. Just run Netduino Update and "upgrade" your board and you'll be back to the latest production firmware. If you're familiar with C and command-line C compilers, it can be a fun adventure.

Thank you Nils!
And for any other newbie (like me) that comes across this, the MOSI pin is 11 (the pin you connect to the data input on the neopixel). I saw that the NeoPixelSPI constructor took a pin as a parameter (Pins.GPIO_PIN_D10) and assumed that was the data pin.
