Week 9 Update

At the time of this writing, the repository is at revision 225.

The wiki looks to be pretty frequently updated too, which is good.

Just some reminders:

• EVERYONE needs to regularly participate in weekly repository commits and wiki edits. Looking at the transaction logs, there is a certain segment of the class that is quite active.
• PLEASE remember to keep the TODO section on the wiki updated… some are, but other areas are clearly out-of-date. There is certainly plenty of things to work on (8085 or 6502-side), so we should share the love!
• COMMIT often. Commit small incremental changes. Do not wait until you get everything perfect. You'll likely end up with conflicts and be confused. This has been the #1 stumbling block for some. Commit, commit, commit.
• Just as often, if not more, than you commit, do an svn update… you might even want to consider doing so before you perform a commit.

Both 8085 and 6502 implementations are deep in instruction implementation, and slowly leading towards getting functional interpreters on-line.

There are plenty of instructions to be implemented on either chip, so if you aren't currently involved, ask someone “in-the-know” in either group (or bug them to update the TODO list) to make that information available.

Remember we're typically in the LAIR most Mondays and pretty much every Friday from 3pm-5pm… feel free to stop by if you're not already there… we can attempt to answer your questions, share information, and keep the project moving along.

Keep up the good work!
