Really odd decision for it to be changed away from this original title. And if I'm being pedantic (and I am) it's Sega Mega Drive. Repo, which says Sega MegaDrive, is at: https://github.com/LinuxMD/linuxmd

I added login support day one, it took a while to be reviewed but has now been merged. My method is better than Octal as no screen scraping or html tag parsing is done. My pace of development seems much higher than the repo, so I will proba

@sylwester is the repo run by a bot? or is it you? I'm OK with either, it's just issues are being marked as "help wanted" even though they are done in PRs waiting to be merged. It seems the replies in the threads ignore

Good luck, I mean that. Times have changed, my kids simply aren't interested in the things I was growing up, so as parents we decided not to force them but rather to positively reinforce whatever it is they want to do. That's not

I'm posting this from a test feature I'm working on for your app: HN login, comments, replies, edit, etc. I've also filed some smaller PRs.
