Will the CGMINER developer get a loaner unit from BFL?

[crazyates]

Unless they release a new version, their software is pretty limited.  Check it out on their website.

I have. No examples / screenshots of their software. Only their hardware.
I'm very interested in the kind of software they use with their stuff (Yes I know EasyMiner is mentioned a couple of times, but no real user guides of this software)

I can't find the exact picture, but BFL showed a picture of them testing a MR with CGMiner.

I can't find the one I'm thinking of, but here's a blurry shot:

Will they give you early (remote) access to the ASICs before they're released?

Early access I don't think so. Timely access, likely. Hardware sponsorship guaranteed they will NOT. However gigavps has taken it almost entirely upon himself to donate as much as BFL themselves probably should have been doing (which is disappointing). His sponsorship has made me care where otherwise I was happy to leave this crap with luke behind forever.

  As much as I hate seeing BFL drop the ball, props to Giga for stepping up! I was very concerned CGMiner would not support ASICs, but this is very good news indeed.

It is my sole mission to make sure ASICs are supported by cgminer. Luckily con and I speak the same language.

Did you choose to point it at ozcoin? To you own address?

That should be pretty clear from the screenshot. Alas I only had access for less than a day.

Might as well, right?

Was just curious if they were okay with that.

Yes. That's the closest they came to "sponsorship" of the work.
