=== Z80 Bus board / backplane ===
Building on the ''Z80 bus'' concept employed by uIDE, I have completed the design of a 5 slot bus board and I plan to produce a serial adapter to plug into it that is a clone of the CPS8256. The status of the serial adapter is that it is nearly ready for prototyping.

=== PCW Serial / parallel port ===
The easiest way to routinely transfer files between a CP/M machine and a PC is via a serial connection and transfer software such as Kermit. The problem is that on the PCW and 6128 you need a plug -in adapter (and these are a bit hard to come by).
The PCW adapter is called a '''CPS8256''' and it has both serial and parallel ports. It is not compatible with the PCW 9512.
I plan to may produce a serial adapter to plug into the Z80 bus board that is a clone of the CPS8256. The status of the serial adapter is that it is nearly ready for prototyping.

'''If there is demand''', these and other ''Z80 bus'' extensions will follow, so keep an eye on the forum for developments.
