What OS do you intend to run on it ? Vintage SunOS 4.x or some more<br>
recent NetBSD ?<br>

A good solution might be to share that on GiHub or similar to foster<br>
collaboration.<br>
I haven't tried to recreate a system, but I've looked at the P4<br>
connector to see if I could port my '030 FPGA-base expansion design<br>
[1] to a 3/80 or 3/60. Unfortunately I don't have a 3/60 and my 3/80<br>
motherboard is dead for now so that stalled :-( But a recreated 3/60<br>
would be of interest to me for that reason. Maybe help where I can<br>
(time permitting!).<br>
<br>
Cordially,<br>
