The rev5 birdseed boards are out for delivery. I will inspect them when I get home tonight and put them on stock. Shipping to customers won't start until next week though.

Interested in one board, can even send some money in advance. Just a one question as I'm a new on Atari ST - is there a way to switch it easily to 68000 mode?... or rather - will I need it, let's say, often? ;-)

It is not switchable no. This is why you need several machines at least ;)

I believe @stephen_usher And some others were working on a switchable solution but I think it was only for the STM machines. I have not tried it myself and not sure the status of the project as I have been away a lot recently.

I created a board which allowed both a 68000 and an accelerator (along with TOS 2.06 ROM and address decoding) to be fitted to a common version of the STFM motherboard:

Github page.

Here it is with two 68000 processors. The left-hand socket can be used for the TF536.

Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.
