Quality: 8/10 Relevance: 9/10

Summary

CHOMPI announces a discontinuation open-source release, providing a permanent source for the hardware and software files and documentation for CHOMPI Mk1. Developers can clone the CHOMPI GitHub repository to customize the device, hardware, and firmware. The release includes firmware files (TAPE 2.0, TEMPO 1.0, WAVE 1.0), bootloader and card profiles, as well as hardware schematics and enclosure files; CHOMPI artwork is excluded. A beta WAVE firmware is provided for experimentation. Community discussion continues on the Chase Bliss Discord Open Source channel, with Blisscord channels for collaboration. Official support for open-source projects is limited, but repairs and support remain available for current CHOMPI owners.
