Hi Jean-Samuel,

We're sitting together with Andrey Sviyazov now and he says that it's
fine to continue with this PCB.

You will need 40pcs of this 0 Ohm jumpers (2pcs per board):
http://fr.farnell.com/bourns/cr0603-j-000elf/resistor-0603-0r-5-0-1w/dp/2008343

Andrey will update the schematics and BoM later today.
