Hiya- Actually, I'm right here! I don't work for Xansa, that must be someone else. I work for a small company called Cosmic Computers in Connecticut, USA.
I run www.CosmicWolf.com which is for a couple usenet programs I wrote for Windows. But my roots stem back to the Apple //e I got in Jan 1983. Only in the last 4 months or so have I gotten back into the Apple II world, and TCP/IP on the 8-bit Apple II's was my goals from the start. Adam asked me to port Contiki to the Apple II a couple weeks ago. Ultimately, I think he pulled my name from an Apple II hat that didn't have too many names in it. We had talked a little about uIP and porting it to the Apple II a few months back. He recalled our conversation and ask if I wanted to work on it. I do want to work on it! But I am still getting back into the swing of apple II development (my 6502 assembler is good, but ProDOS interfacing, Super Serial Card programming, etc, needs work). I'm also a software engineer by day, doing a lot of internet programming [sockets, dns, ..] so I do know that I'm getting into. My original hope was that I could re-learn my apple II past while uIP matured more and (I really hoped!) someone would add PPP support for uIP. To make things (slightly) more difficult, my personal life is in a swing as I am getting ready to move into a new house (my first!). I have my new computer room all planned out, and yadda yadda yadda. Most of my Apple II material is boxed at the moment. Contiki, then, popped up out of nowhere. It's awesome, and I wish I was more ready so that I could jam out the code lickety-split. The author of Marinetti (Andrew Roughan) also asked me if he could help. I told him Yes (of course) and that he could probably do the whole thing about 20 times faster than I. If anyone else wants to work on it, feel free! Otherwise, I still plan on doing it as I get the time.
