I found an interesting project concerning source code conversion. It is called PS2PC and i believe it is nolonger supported, but it converts PC native code to Playstation 2 MIPS native code. It is a comand line tool and I have uploaded it to megaupload here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=7QTQKX9G sounds like an interesting project and i will upload source code if you want. *IMPORTANT: I DID NOT make this and all credit goes to the author of the pogram

I believe that the site is just as dead as the project, and while the author hopefully is not so, it may still be impossible to reach him based on any info on that page.

There are tons of such pages around, carrying embryonic projects that never took off, designed by people who left the scene long ago. Or projects that were completed but still abandoned as times and interests changed.

I even have a few dead project pages of my own floating about on the Internet, as remnants of my activities many years ago. (Anyone interested in Atari ST stuff might want to check out my old page at dlanor.atari.org, for example.)

Best regards: dlanor
