Subject: Z80 emulators

So how many people are interested in collaborating on CP/M or Z80 emulator
development? I had a Z80 emulator on my todo list for years, and then Nick
Sayer came along and announced his, so I went and helped him test and debug
it, rather than duplicate effort; however, there are a number of different
strategies one might use, and there's room for many other designs (in its
current form, with all of my additions, Nick's is quite useful for debugging,
but it is dismayingly slow. A faster implementation might use a different
strategy but not be as good at debugging.)
       If you're interested in actively coding or designing and discussing
strategies for particular instructions or for the overall implementation,
send me email (eichin@athena.mit.edu) and if there is enough interest, I'll
set up the list.

ps. My motivation includes possibly doing a simulator of the Z88, for
development there too. If you're interested in that, consider joining the
z88-hackers list <z88-hackers-request@sipb.mit.edu>.
