Tom Hunter's DtCyber includes a copy of COS.
There is lots of other stuff but there are still restrictions on
distribution, unfortunately.
Also check out www.cyber1.org.

You mean recently? I believe the University of Illinois did that in
the late 1970s, or at least was thinking about it.
I've seen some discussion recently that you could put a complete 6600
into a high end FPGA. That would be neat. I haven't heard of that
being actually done, though.
