Just to not make that mistake again: Is it the "I'm wondering when it might be time to fully drop a hardware port instead of draining developer time for ethernity" in my mail you stumbled upon. May be its the language barrier but I do not think that if a random developer is wondering about something this is equivalent to "asking for the ultima ratio". I was honestly thinking about whether we are keeping alive an architecture by everybody using emulators. I try to be more careful in my wording in the future when asking questions about ports (and hope I will manage). Kind regards and sorry again if I tipped on somebodies shoes Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
