It's good to see you back to blogging on your own. I read
through your list of recent stuff, but I hoped to see something
about any of your historic computing efforts?
- jgrahamc 12y agoI have updated it to mention that Plan 28 is moving along despite the silence. There's a guest blog post coming about the work. Basically, there are two people (one is Doron Swade) working on interpreting Babbage's hardware description language (which is vital because a lot of the Analytical Engine is described using it). They are doing this using the language and the Difference Engine No. 2 as a "Rosetta Stone". The work is being funded by a major donor and through a major university. I'll say more then I can. Plan 28 still needs money. Mainly to extend work on the AE from two people, two days a week to at least two people full-time.
