/b /big Some priorities:

1.  DriveWire via CocoIO/PizgaNet

2.  HDBDOS & the Big Software Collection of CocoSDC via CocoIO/PizgaNet

3.  Fujinet via CocoIO/PizgaNet

4.  PizgaNet!

5.  PizgaNet via other hardware (e.g. copico instead of CocoIO)

6.  Rick points out: Doing things "with the CoCo" as opposed to doing things "for the Coco".


/b /big  What is frobio?

A git repository with lots of different pieces of source code
for various networking things I've done so far.
A lot is based around Nitros-9 rather than BASIC.

/b /big So what is PizgaNet?  Proposals:

1.  Network Boot with the current ROM/Server scheme.

2.  Popular things to boot

3.  Everything else we can boot!

4.  SOCIAL:

4a) Login to server with hostname/pw in ROM (your server on your LAN, someone else's, or the HUB)

4b) Personal resources (home directories, repositories) unlocked

4c) Tree of servers rooted at the HUB ( that is, HubNet )

4d)  Who is connected?  Discovery / chat / WriteAll over HubNet

4e)  Pre-firewall-pierced tunnel to all connected Cocos over
