Hi,
The source tree has many changes which are not available as a tar ball
(the 4.0-devel archive is from 2012 on
https://github.com/simh/simh/releases). This makes it more difficult
to tie into package building infrastructure in an automated manner
(someone will have to roll their own archives regularly to up with
development).
It would be nice if archives were regularly published (regen per
commit too excessive? monthly snapshot?)
Project would benefit from more testing through distributed packages of OS
