It’s kinda ok, except the acting like anyone trying to work outside the box is awful for doing so. ;) especially when he forked someone else’s work anyway. Is there an actual project scope and spec defined!? Seems you are exaggerating a wee bit.

I would think when he announced the project and fork he had something laid out but that's just an assumption and I don't actually know to what extent he has written down the project goals

I mean that was pretty much it... "MiSTer: MiST on Terasic DE10-nano board... In short, it's MiST ported to DE10-nano board with 4x larger FPGA", and ease of development, ironically. ;) pic.twitter.com/j0P5jeMEOwpic.twitter.com/LQhcwmOQsM

I would say the existence of MiSTer has on the whole benefitted MiST with ports of SNES and other cores. And expanded FPGA gaming. The hardware will evolve, the work done now will be ported. There's little reason to be displeased with the current speed of progress IMHO

benefitted MiST by helping decapitate the project? lol wut!? She's dead man. "we simply cannot compete with the clones anymore", then MiSTer came and kicked em when they were down. ;) "So what's the result? The MIST simply doesn't sell anymore." https://www.atari-forum.com/viewtopic.php?t=32998 …pic.twitter.com/QrSgDio1hp

Mist was doomed the writing was on the wall. It's actually fortunate that mister came along to keep things moving.

That is one way to think about a *semi-hostile*(?) take over of someone else's project. Even the name was a straight jack move.pic.twitter.com/CSZi7Zjl9V

Well that's because I consider the advancement of the source codebase ultimately more important to preservation than any lost potential hardware sales of a particular hardware iteration.

So to that point, wouldn't it be more pertinent to you know... stop being so tied to the USB core, and allow some alternate, more accurate, preservation worthy input sources come to light? Since we are discussing preservation and all. Proper JAMMA sans USB layer would be cool.

Sure it would be cool. Lots of things would be cool, cartridge support would be cool, and ultimately I don't doubt there will be such solutions one day. But Sorgelig doesn't believe its possible or necessary and all anyone can really do is either prove him wrong or accept it?

Even if proven wrong, the point is, he may very well gatekeep, and shit all over the solution as he tells the person "you just don't understand MiSTer, maybe you should go get a RasPi" (paraphrased). So yeah you are right, but you are also completely missing the friction.

Whats the use in getting frustrated over it? Ever since MiSTer was created we have seen lots of new open source FPGA cores and advancement. This is all eventually going to end up in whatever comes after MiSTer, and when that happens we'll hopefully get closer to the ideal
