What happened?
Well, I got a full-time job for a major manufacturer of mass media storage, so that's been occupying most of my time.
Finally heard from Crowd Supply about a month ago that they're still waiting for parts to complete my order for TinyFPGA BX modules. Who knew the semiconductor shortage would take out the BX-Plorer project?
Still, I've not had two seconds to rub together to hack on the VDC-II HDL code. Which sucks, because I am itching to make some progress with it. I desperately want to finish it by end of this year, so I can move on to other things.
But, now that I'm starting to get into a routine at my day-gig job, I'm hoping to re-allocate some weekend time to get back to work on the Font Editor code for the VDC(-II), and subsequently to that, to actually finish the VDC-II itself. I would love to be able to get CP/M running natively on it using my RC2014.
Adulting is hard. Avoid becoming an adult if you can.

Thanks for the response; but, with nearly 40 years in the industry, I'm quite well versed in employment dynamics. And, probably for only the second time in my life, I actually enjoy my current professional work. A lot, actually.
However, I can invest my energy working for my employer's projects, or I can invest my energy working on the VDC-II. The purpose of this post is to let my followers know that the VDC-II is delayed because of my professional obligations. Although I love my current job, obligations remain obligations nonetheless.
