I became convinced of the need for a modernized version of 83pa28d (the canonical introduction to programming Z80 assembly for the 83+ and similar machines) some months ago, but never achieved the motivation to do anything about it. Dapianokid's thread today revived that idea, so I jumped on the idea and started rewriting parts of it.
Long story short, I doubt I have enough motivation to make all the useful changes myself, so I'd love to get some other people helping here. I've created a repository tracking my changes, and there's a live copy on my web site. Anybody interested in doing some work on it, just post here or shoot me a message somewhere (PM, via IRC, whatever) with either your email address or bitbucket username, and I'll grant you commit access.

What I want to do:
- Stop supporting TASM and provide toolchain setup help for OSes other than Windows.
- Fix the wrong information in the interrupt section.
- Do something about day 14, because it seems weird to me.
- Discuss shells in some fashion.
- Interfacing with the outside world via the link ports?
- Whatever else occurs to me while reading through
- Created a skeleton of improvements to day 1
