My company wasn't cool with me working on related OSS stuff.
Also, I would have been too busy anyway.

Its the probem with OSS , who pays for it, not everyone wants to spend hours coding with no payment, the socialist vs captialism issue with "open source"
Well, I did it in part for the experience and the fun.
C64, Microbee , Amstard cpc664, Amiga 500, Apple IIc , XT, 286 , 386, etc
I got free source code and I paid back with free labor. I think it's fair.
Ive always hated apple, even pre 2000
It's as socialist a thing you will ever hear me say.
