  Last time I checked, all the code was posted on the forums, available for download. (made my hydra CD slightly pointless...) I don't know if they changed that within the last year or so though.

  IIUC, the code was released as MIT license.. Open Source!
  
  Here's the thread that announced it: http://forums.parallax.com/showthread.php?124332-Hydra-CD-Open-Source-for-all&highlight=Hydra+CD+download
  
  Here's the official download link: ftp://ftp.parallax.com/Hydra%20CD/

  Thanks for the link! I noticed I actually posted on that link about the open source. I must have a serious case of halfimers

  The contents of that CD look very interesting. Would some kind soul be able to please give me a link to the hydra schematics (assuming they are open source now too?)

  I think the schematics are on the hydra CD that you can download from the parallax's website, however I was just on the parallax web site and I saw that the full hydra book is available for download, I know that the schematics in the book
