V4: Unable to upload firmware

[GoogleCodeExporter]

SYMPTOMS/ENVIRONMENT:
When attempting to upload the open_evse.pde to an open-evse V4 board (from OSH 
PARK direct purchase) with the Arduino IDE and a USBtinyISP, the following 
avrdude error occurs:
"initialization failed, rc=-1"

ISSUE:
It appears that the "RST" trace from pin 5 of the ISP1 header (J1) to pin 1 of 
IC1 is missing.  This was evident in the board file: "Open EVSEv4.brd" and may 
have occurred because of the label mismatch (RST vs RESET) in the schematic: 
"Open EVSEv4.sch".

WORKAROUND:
After adding a jumper in place of the missing trace, upload was successful.

Thanks for the workaround! I have been pulling my hair out trying to figure out 
why my uploads keep failing. I'll go try this right away...

Forgot to mention for the benefit of others: My workaround was to pull the chip 
and program it directly in my Dragon programmer's prototyping area. This isn't 
an option if you are using USBTiny or AVRISP.

The OpenEVSE DIY Thru-hole V4 board and schematic have been depreciated and 
replaced by the V4.2 board and schematic which corrects the issue.
