Is there any progress in including the BBC into the main distribution? I 
gather the major issue when it comes to adding new targets to cc65 is to 
write OS compile time libraries.

I like the idea with Contiki on a Master: powerful machine with plenty of 
RAM and expansion options. Many of the original Contiki 1.X ports never took 
off to their fullest due to limitations in memory, disk, networking or all 
of those. The current 2.X branch barely covers 8-bit platforms these days, 
but there is ongoing work to backport it.

Sigh.. with the exception of Apple II and Oric, I have almost every 6502 
based home computer now, but so little time and motivation to explore them 
beyond the most basic usage. If I spend some time programming, it tends to 
be for one of the Commies because I already know them so well. The BBCs, 
Electron, Atari 8-bits and Laser have to sit there unused.
