I’ve been toying with Ajile’s aj80 target for a while now.  I’ve gotten it 
working under openocd, but haven’t really wanted to add the code because
I’m not sure anyone else but me really has a use for it.  The thing is an 
ancient Java microcontroller, which does seem to have something of a following
up to 2012, and I have an old JStamp development board.

I don’t use Windows anymore, so I wasn’t able to develop for the thing because 
their tools were all Windows based.  And since I try to use very few
virtual machines, and their tools also seem to require the use of an old 
Parallel port that I ALSO don’t possess (their JTAG device was an old
Xilinx style JTAG, which worked great, but again requires a parallel port), so 
I decided to maybe bring the tools into the 21st century (okay, they were
almost in the 21st century before, but I can’t seem to find a good parallel to 
USB converter) by converting them to openocd.

The port still needs A LOT of work, as I’m having issues with certain things, 
but I wasn’t going to bother adding it to openocd if no one but me is interested
in it.  I’m not sure that people want OpenOCD to be a project that “also 
contains a bunch of dead processors”, although I suppose all processors end up 
that
way.
