[Coco] Changes for ToolShed and NitrOS-9 Projects

[Boisy G. Pitre]

Hello CoCo Community,

I would like to announce some changes happening now on both ToolShed and NitrOS-9.

The first change is that ToolShed has moved back to SourceForge from OpenCoCo.net.  All development will be taking place from SourceForge from this point forward.

The second change is that starting now, version control for both NitrOS-9 ToolShed have moved from CVS to Mercurial.  Mercurial is a new breed of Distributed Version Control System (DVCS) software.  It decentralizes the repository, effectively giving everyone the complete repository for a project.  This new paradigm can take some adjusting, but for the few who actually use the repository and make active contributions, I believe it will be well worth the learning curve.

The third change is that now HDB-DOS, along with the Color Basic, Extended Color Basic, Disk Basic and CoCo 3 Basic ROMs are now part of ToolShed under the coocoroms/ folder.  The source code for all the ROMs is fully commented and uses the mamou assembler to assemble exact binaries.
