JiffyDos Experts around?

Hey there everybody!

Jiffy, Jaffy and compatible disk operating systems need better documenation and a proper all-in point-in-web :)

https://rr.pokefinder.org/wiki/JiffyDOS looks quite deserted and while there are a ton of binaries to be put up there and the overall https://rr.pokefinder.org/wiki/Category:JiffyDOS is filled as well: I will probably not find the time to make that part of the wiki as nice as the scene (and retro buyer idiots) would demand it.

Anybody up for sorting out the binaries, maintaining JD articles and link to any friggin crap that could be related? :)
Any further notes welcome, ofc!

PM me.

PS: Unless there isnt a serious DMCA or alike takedown attempt we will of course link to JD roms found in the wild or even hosting them on our sites as such ROMs mostly incorparate CBM ROMs anyhow. (HELLO TERRY!!! Threaten me again PLS!)

Well,

during the last 11 years he mailed us about Wheels 64/128, SuperCPU implementation in vice (when we were still doing nightlies and the SCPU ROMs werent even included in the archive!) and of course JD. We'd be illegally linking to them - but we couldnt even find a trace :)
However - such binaries usually pop up on the ftp searcher so to be able to _possibly_ block stuff we always asked for URLs and never got a reply. (Nothing on pokefinder.org is on an exclusion list or hidden BTW and due to "missing" logs we also didnt figure the search request.)

Even asking for a DMCA wasnt replied - so maybe these CBM-copied CMD ROMs can at least partially be taken to web court this way and we somewhen in a few years get an URL to be blamed for :)
