I think he begged off at some point.

Steve, if you go here:

http://projects.cs.kent.ac.uk/

and create an account, we can give you commit access to the community
area. And, actually, I'd be happy to see you have commit access to the
Plumbing code as well. You've got some good fixes that we should add
in, and you could add them as well as I. (My February is killing me,
so I'm not doing a good job of keeping up with edits.)

But, yes, cool stuff like this is great. Over break I played with some
explorations regarding computer architecture. Specifically, can we
develop a small computer (ALU and all that jazz) with occam-pi
building blocks, so students might study how we build a small
computer, and execute it on a small computer. They could then feed it
assembly, etc., and watch it execute. (Or, see it on the desktop.)
Peter pointed out that some work in this regard was done some years
ago.

But, I digress... create an account, and lets get your code where
people can see it and play with it.

Cheers,
Matt
