Speaking of Senior Projects, :^) a friend and myself have a project
on the Amiga and it would be really wonderful if we could use multiple
serial ports.  Can you say multi-player?  Say, a dozen Amigas tied into one
game over direct connect or modem?

The problem is that I've not heard any definite info on how these second
and third ports are to be implemented.  Is there anyone who knows how one
would go about accessing those extra ports yet?  We need to start looking
at serial port design considerations at least by January or February.
