A new SoC core is available: Z80SoC. The core, based on the popular T80, turns the Altera DE1 and Diligent Spartan 3E boards into a Z80 System, providing access to all IO pins by means of ports. Also, it provides easy access to the VGA, PS/2 (both boards) and LCD (Spartan 3E), what makes it possible to create practical and functional programs using Z80 assembly.

The Java processor JOP changed the license to the GNU General Public License, version 3. JOP has been open-source since its beginning 2000, but was free only for academic and personal use. With the change to GPL JOP is now a fully free design as advocated by the Free Software Foundation (FSF). JOP is the only GPL based Java processor up today.

Among the new projects there seams to be some really interested ones which probably will be highly downloaded and used.
