Hello!

I had to check that date twice, but my last log is half year old ... well ... I writing this log just to say that I'm not death. I'm still breathing! :D

A few last months brings interesting news. In short, I lost GF, quit school, started working at full time, disconnect myself from internet (since first of June), have injury at Aikido, started with Kenjutsu, bought ukulele, started again with piano. Now I'm looking for new flat. :) 

But nothing can stop me in order to create ultimate CPU like MARK-II is! :D I finished assembler, it should be relatively easy to port for another architecture. In same way (easy to port with changing only one library), I'm working on rest of toolchain, so linker, archiver and supporting utilities.

I didn't have estimate when I will finish it. I have prepared book about linkers but not started reading it yet. When toolchain will be completed, I'm going to update CPU architecture, remove useless parts like FPU, and increase speed.

But as I spend all day programming in my work, I simply doesn't have too much willpower to program at home too. So ... I don't know how long it will take.
