Hi All. I have been talking to a sponsor who's interested in having element14 roadtest one of its FPGA boards. We are looking for someone who is familiar with AMD products and design tools. It's about a $700 board and have significant capabilities. Let me describe the high points below. If you are interested, please vote in the poll.
Here's some basic information on the AUBoard 15P FPGA Development Kit:
The board is based on the AMD AMD Artix UltraScale+ 15P FPGA, featuring 170K logic cells, 12 GTH transceivers, 7.6 Mb on-chip memory, and 576 DSP slices. It's a great board to experiment with and learn the AMD Artix UltraScale+ 
architecture. Whether you want to explore bare metal, RTOS, or Linux software, the AUBoard 15P will give you a solid base foundation to experiment.
The board also features 2GB of ISSI DDR4 and non-volatile configuration and boot from the 512Mb of ISSI QSPI Flash. A Microchip PHY enables the 10/100 Ethernet interface. A microUSB port provides on-board JTAG/UART access. A Renesas clock generator and ECS crystal oscillators provide clocking to the AU15P device, GTH transceivers, JTAG, and communication interfaces. All 12 GTH transceivers are brought out to SFP+ 10 GbE Ethernet (1), HDMI 2.0 Rx & Tx (3), and PCIe end point (4) interfaces and FMC (4) I/O expansion.
A temperature sensor from STMicroelectronics adds environmental data to the system. Additionally, 80 FPGA I/Os are exposed through the Samtec connectors for FMC LPC high-speed expansion and one Click Board site.
Target applications include: Embedded vision, Embedded processing, Wired communications, Prototyping & experimentation, and Industrial networking
