STEPS allows TCP in 200 LoC, Javascript in 170, self-hosting in 1000 (Alan Kay)

Increasing the coolness factor: those 200 lines of code parse the textual RFC header diagrams to learn the format of TCP/IP datagrams.

Decreasing the coolness factor: it's not actually TCP (calling this protocol --- which lacks flow control and congestion avoidance --- TCP is like calling those fiberglass kit cars in the back of sports car magazines "Ferraris").

Has anyone found any more recent work on this? It kind of looks like the project is dead.
