There's just something magical about blinking LEDs in programming. I fondly remember hooking up rows and rows of LEDs to the GPIO of an AVR when I was a kid (maybe I should find that board and hook up the LLVM AVR backend to julia ;), but the RPi does make that kind of thing a whole lot easier. I'm glad this collaboration worked out.
