    Current main projects:

    • #plptools: Resurrecting old ports (#FreeBSD, #NetBSD) and working on a new port to #HaikuOS. It's an opportunity to get more familiar with the code and maybe find bugs along the way.

    Upcoming projects:

    • #CTRAN: Still haven't started writing unit tests. Also, complete a full write-up of what it took to get the thing working.
    • Get my website running #GoHugo.
    • Rebuild of DEATH, my Microserver gen8, probably with #FreeBSD. (Yes, it's been over a year since DEATH's RAID died.)
    • Pick another SIBO SDK tool to rewrite. (Probably EMAKE or RCOMP.)
    • Add a 17V boost converter to #PsiDrive.
    • Make #fefstool create FEFS images. (I'm half-tempted to rewrite fefstool in Pascal to make it easier for me to finish.)

    You'll notice that some of these projects have been sitting for a while. I've struggled to get going with things this year. I'm hoping that working though plptools will give me some mental energy to get going with other things.

    - #MAME null modem mod, so that it can talk properly to #DOSBox.
    - Low-watt #HomeLab desktop/workstation for #Proxmox. Possibly a Dell Precision, an HP Elite 800 G3, or something else.

    - SO MANY blog posts!

    There are plenty of others, but those are the ones at the forefront of my mind.
