Hi,
my first computer in 1982 was a 16K ZX Spectrum. In 83(84?) I bought an Acorn Electron which was on clearance sale for 20.-DM.
Those machines started my interest in machine language because of their limitations and are responsible for my later career in computer science. In 1987 I got one of the first MegaST 2 without Blitter since the chip was not finished yet. Some time later, during my university time, I switched to PCs. I rediscovered my ATARI around 1998 and started buying all the machines I couldn't afford back when.
Around this time, I also got some parts of the NOVA source code (under NDA) and started investigating. It took me until about 2005 before I was able to get things compiled and was able release new versions.
I also was in contact with Alison Challis during those years, which motivated me later to fund a run of the PeST adapters (produced by Exxos) after her tragic accident.
Since I make my living with programming (on mainframes!), I don't always find the time (or motivation) to work on ATARI stuff. This is especially true during the warmer months when I am more inclined to do some (mostly off-road) motorcycling. :)
Anyhow, I have been reading here for a while and finally decided to register to be able to ask stupid questions. :lol:
Cheers,
Wolfgang

DO NOT USE MOBILE / CGNAT DEVICES WHERE THE IP CHANGES CONSTANTLY!
At this time, it is unfortunately not possible to whitelist users when your IP changes constantly.
You may inadvertently get banned because a previous attack may have used the IP you are now on.
So I suggest people only use fixed IP address devices until I can think of a solution for this problem!
