GPLv2, OSH, great.
>Bluster
CERN OHL 1.2, OSH, great.
>ReAgnus
CC-By-SA. Not the best license for hardware, but technically OSH. Good.
>A500++
I understand directly based on A500+. Might be legally dodgy. But it is good that it exists, for preservation.

Mix of licenses in their projects. Some of them are OSH (great).
But some of them are not, due to restrictions on commercial use and/or derivatives.
From the above, I gather the one remaining big item that's not yet covered is the PAULA chip.
It seems we're getting close to an open hardware chip-by-chip whole ECS Amiga remake.
- erikarn 4y agoyup, the community is really coming together over this. I'm shocked and happily surprised. :-) There are gary / buster drop-ins now too. Super Buster has been talked about for Zorro-III, but yeah, the AGA and A3000 glue logic stuff hasn't yet been dropped in.

- snvzz 4y agoSure, it has. And minimig is great. But minimig is a standalone whole-amiga replacement. It is not a replacement for each individual chip. Paula has many functions, but some of them involve interfacing the analog world (floppy controller, UART, Audio). While a starting point, I don't think minimig's Paula is ready to go.
