I don't think i get the reason for the resistor in parallel with the LED. Is it the current limiting resistor?

Unimplemented feature - you can use it to measure light. If not planning to do that (you'd need some new code) you can omit it.

Here's the background and inspiration for the board. I just never had time to work on that part.

Also the two holes at the opposite end are just there for accessories in case you want to solder on a few antennae :-)
