i know there's efforts out there to get the MIT CADR lisp machine implemented in VHDL or some such

and i seem to remember in my dim memory that people are maintaining the genera operating system?

these obviously need investigations

@vidak
Main site for CADR stuff I've found is here:
https://tumbleweed.nu/lm-3/

@amszmidt is the person to ask about the VHDL and other related stuff.

Genera is still commercial I believe.

@kirtai @vidak Genera is behind lock and key guarded by software hoarders.

@amszmidt @kirtai so there is no historical lisp os being maintained/archived out there? hmmm maybe i day dreamed it xD

LM-3 is a CADR emulator that runs the Lisp Machine OS as it was pre-Genera with some additions and fixes. Still being maintained.

Lambda Delta is a (sadly no longer developed) emulator for the LMI Lambda which also has the OS available.

Medley is a revived Interlisp-D. Still being maintained.

All three of them are readily available.

@kirtai Not Pre-Genera. It was developed post-Genera too. It is also more or less the same system that Lambda used.

@vidak All the ones that Kirtai mentioned are worked on -- you didn't dream it 😃

The CADR system is probably the one that is most active.

@amszmidt @vidak
Sorry, I meant that it split off before Genera, not that it ended when Genera started.

@vidak Wanna help making it happen -- CADR on FPGA?

@amszmidt yes!!!
