The Apollo core is not open source. There are some other pretty nice and featured 68k cores that are open source (TG68, WF68K30L etc.) but none that is really

  Ah that's a shame. I suppose this could be used to perform a revival of 68k without the Apollo core, but it's a shame that the engineering effort already there would not be available. Maybe this would be an incentive for them to open source it, but yeah.

    They have a slack channel... :-) https://wiki.apollo-accelerators.com/doku.php/about_us:links https://wiki.apollo-accelerators.com/doku.php/about_us:links

  Note that there have been IP theft and other shadiness allegations from ex-members of the Apollo team. If you do a little research you'll find out that there's plenty of "stay away" and "can't believe they haven't been sued into oblivion yet" indicators and all sorts of misleading claims and marketing. My summary would be that it's a tightly-controlled, closed project lead by questionable people with well-documented histories of questionable practices including ignoring copyrights, distributing infringing software, deleting critical posts from their forums and putting out misleading information.

    It seems I have a little bit more to learn on this project. Are there any sources I could read?
