It has been a while since we reported about C-BIOS, the open source BIOS compatible with the MSX BIOS. BouKiChi initiated the development from this BIOS, writing it from scratch. The first version was released in August 2002. C-BIOS can be shipped with MSX emulators, so that without breaking any copyrights or trademarks emulators can be used out-of-the-box.
Although C-BIOS is already useful, it's far from finished. After talking to Reikan and BouKiChi, it was decided that Maarten ter Huurne would take over C-BIOS maintenance. The goal is to speed up C-BIOS development by getting more people involved. To organise this, a project at SourceForge was started.
Now, the C-BIOS team is looking for developers who like low-level assembly coding. Apart from that, testers are wanted who try running software with C-BIOS and report any incompatibilities they find. If you are interested in C-BIOS, please subscribe to the C-BIOS development mailing list.
