Let the web demand more and more resources. Give old platforms as well
as new access to Gemini.
I just... Don't know if anyone here is actually interested in Doing
The Thing. I just think it'd be neat and would get coverage by people
like Micheal mjd, lgr, etc alongside.

I'm somewhat interested, I just don't have access to older hardware. Ican probably get somewhat older operating systems running in emulationor virtual machines (OS/2, Windows 95, Mac System 7), but they'll stillbe running on pretty modern hardware, even if I limit the RAM (etc)available to them. I know even less about 8-bit micros; I was a kidwhen I used them.

I have some development experience on OS/2, but not on the others.
