Hy!

In order to specify better what ROMs come with VICE and/or which the user 
needs to provide, i have started renaming them to, and listing them in the 
documentation with, their actual part numbers. For some i could not find them 
- it would be cool if those of you who own these devices - or know the part 
numbers - could provide them. Perhaps you can also point me to another archive 
than zimmers (a list of part numbers doesnt really help).

In particular:

- mps801.bin (MPS 801 charset)
- mps803.bin (MPS 803 charset)
- nl10.bin (NL 10 charset)

- (we do not provide this in VICE) the SCPU ROM (this is an eprom with a 
sticker on it, i am interested in what is printed on the sticker)

- Last not least some localized C128 Kernal ROMs. These are somewhat strange:

kernalfi (finnish) - The editor part matches none of the files on zimmers, the 
kernal part matches kernalpart.finnish1.bin
kernalfr (french) - Matches editor.french.bin+kernalpart.french.bin
kernalit (italian) - Matches editor.italian.bin+kernalpart.italian.bin. The 
editor part matches kernal.italian.325168-02.bin, but the kernal part is 
different. 
kernalno (norwegian) - Matches editor.norwegian.bin+kernalpart.norwegian.bin. 
The editor part matches kernal.norwegian.325177-02.bin, but the kernal part is 
different.

For all of the above it would be acceptable to replace the files that we 
currently have in VICE - IF we know that the files we replace with are 
actually newer revisions than the ones we have, and we know their part 
numbers. (That is also true for any other ROM files in the VICE tree - if you 
spot such cases, please tell)

You can find the files we provide with VICE in the snapshot release on github:
https://github.com/VICE-Team/svn-mirror/releases

and the files i compared with on zimmers:
http://www.zimmers.net/anonftp/pub/cbm/firmware/computers/

Thanks for your help!
