Is this just a graveyard? Is there anyone still alive in here?
If so, then I'm putting out feelers to see if there would be any interest in starting a ground up build of the ultimate, open source (that means free people), community supported, plugin-based OBD1 ROM editor. Lately I have felt like the creators of paid Honda tuning solutions (Neptune, Crome pro, Hondata) have had their day, and I wanted to see if there was any interest out there in starting from scratch with the purpose of keeping the project community supported, and open source, with all the features of the paid boys, but none of the proprietary restrictions. I feel like making a program free, but making a super important feature like datalogging or RTP paid options is just nonsense. Or even the cost of some of these paid options is just nonsense.
I understand that this might seem about 15 years too late, but I also know that the OBD1 tuning world has never been more popular. Yes, I'm a latecomer to the game, and tune with Neptune on my own car currently. By day I'm a Java developer/UX designer, and think the Java codebase would make excellent use of an updated technology with cross-OS in mind. Thoughts? Ideas? Anyone still alive in here? Just trying to shake some trees, turn over some rocks and see if there is any interest, and if there is any source code out there that is not VB or Boreland Delphi - Pascal nonsense to start with - It's 2014. Thanks.
