There were two independent projects, MAME and MESS. MESS was merged with MAME
recently to make core code merges easier. Since most of the non-encrypted arcade
games have been simulated, more and more effort is going into preserving pretty
much anything the developers are interested in that has a CPU. A lot of work has
been going on improving 68K Macintosh and IBM PC simulators. A lot of the public-facing
discussions go on at http://forums.bannister.org/ubbthreads.php?ubb=postlist&Board=1&page=1
