Confirm whether piface-node works with A+/B+ or newer boards, with Piface Digital 2

[darrylhodgins]

I don't have the Piface Digital 2 hardware to test this out. Anyone able to confirm?

Hey, I am currently compiling node.js and will check it out later!

Cannot build the node package, but I think this is caused my using v0.12.7 (is this unsupported?), Raspberry pi 2 piface2:
