As many know, I have been working on an emulator
(hpemu) for the HP 2100
type computer systems for some time. An incredible amount of progress has
been made, however, I only have so much time I can dedicate to this project.
More importantly, I've wanted to find other people to "join the team" and
help work on it, but I needed to first get the API's and structure well
defined, coded, and tested first. That is certainly now done. In addition, I
finally decided the project will be released "open source". Actually, it
will be "dual licensed", with individual use being free and under the GPL
(just like the mysql license). Complete source code is available (as of the
pending alpha release) and free.
How does it compare to the emulator available at
http://simh.trailing-edge.com/
I don't know how complete the hp2100 is, but other simulators in this
set are
quite functional.
Maybe these two could share information.
