For years, I've sat on a bunch of variations of JiffyDOS, unable to ensure they are the best options to offer, etc. I always had the idea to dissassemble the various ROMs into code that could conditionally assemble using a cross assembler to be the various versions of the KERNAL and/or DOS, and then work to ensure the JD specific portions were added to the code in such a way that I could assemble a version of the DOS or KERNAL that was the latest for each system and optional country variation with and without the JD code. Even I know some of the disassemblies are available (I think pagetable has the 64 variants, and I think NLQ created a dissaembly of JD), I'd like to offer a bounty or just pay someone outright to do this, and release the results as creative commons (for both JD and non JD variants) somewhere where folks can annotate the assembly over time. Any interest? If I leave it up to myself, it'll be a decade before I can get to it. If there is any interest, I'm also interested in paying someone to disassemble the clone drives' ROMs, and add the conditional JD assembly in those.
