Mark and John's messages this morning look like the beginnings of
two separate developments for the RCX, both of which have the potential to
satisfy the needs of many who are dissatisfied with the current firmware.
Hopefully both ideas will be successful - and if they are, then they will
be hugely useful.
My current wish-list and computing skills place me firmly in the "add a
few opcodes to the existing firmware" camp - and I'm extremely willing to
assist in the development effort of such an add-on. I suggest that a small
group should get together (off the list) and come up with a definite
specification, which we could then implement. Would someone like to
volunteer to lead the effort? (Don't look at me - I still have to learn a
lot about the H8 and install a compiler!)
If a similar group is going to try JVM, then I'd like to wish them every
success :-)

| (...) My request to both groups is: don't go 'off-list' until you have a feature spec that was formed with feedback from the whole list. It would be a shame for you to finish development of a tool that no one else uses. -Wes (25 years ago, 6-May-99, to lugnet.robotics)
