| − | :I have seen simulations of Nintendo (I think), C64, CPC, MSX, Atari, Amiga ;). They are all "PC-like" devices. Ie a device that have it's own cpu+memory+storage+i/o. There are a lot of ARM based stuff with Linux I think. The x86 architecture is crap, so no one use it if it can be avoided I guess.
| |
| − | :I don't see a real point in being a wikipedia mirror. The problem with wikipedia is that they are rigid about "notability", original research and have some close minded editors. Though many articles are very useful.
| |
| − | :See it as what can opencircuits.com accomplish that wikipedia currently never will. I think it's setting up project pages without complications. With information related to a project or some hands on information, or just an idea. Where it can be assumed readership have the knowhow and won't balk on complicated matters. One can add info about things as they come.
| |
| − | :Trying to cover every subject or being a mirror isn't worthwhile I think. Wikipedia pages are useful as a starting place or reference. So the Minimig page can be seen as a starting point, that have no intention of being in line with the wikipedia one. But rather will be edited to aid the development, and not being any encyclopedia. Ie details on history, who & when etc.. may be removed. While hard numbers like chip ids may stay or ideas on modifications.
| |
| − | :I think opencircuits should be about ideas, projects, and howto pages. And not trying to compete with wikipedia nor being a mirror of it.
| |
| − | :As for license, people should be allowed commercial use. But may not hinder other in obtaining documentaion or schematics. [[User:Freqmax|Freqmax]] 17:28, 28 July 2007 (PDT)

| − | Thank you for formatting the information on the [[techniques]] page into a nice table.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | When you get information from some other source, please note where you got that information from.
| |
| − | I don't want Open Circuits to be accused of "plagiarizing information copy-and-pasted from other, better websites".
| |

| |
| − | I think it is great when we can have one big table that summarizes, in our own words and format, information that would otherwise take a person days to figure out.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | So what do the abbreviations "Pl" and "Li" mean in that table?

| − | :I think I have specified the source, anyway it's in the same section anyway.
| |
| − | :Pl and Li is simple Platform and Linux. Just to aid navigation of the wiki source.
