There is one think i don't really like and i'm not sure what to do: Now we have C64 and C128 cores where later one is basically absorbed the whole C64.
While C64 is iconic computer, C128 is niche one. So giving up C64 core into favour of C128 is wrong by all means. It would be better to have/continue C64 core with extra C128 functionality.

C64, ZXSpectrum, Genesis, MegaCD, TurboGrafx16:
- C64: SID: add adjustable filter curve.
- ZX: Optional ZX-Spectrum Recreated Bluetooth keyboard input (pgimeno).
- TGFX16: Fix incorrect TIMER interrupt acknowledge condition (David Shadoff).
- Updated framework.

Minimig:
- RTC: support for seconds (fixes RTC in Workbench 1.3).
- Updated framework.

Menu, NES, SNES, NeoGeo:
- NES: support for keyboard (greyrogue).
- Updated framework.

I've invited you into MiSTer-devel. Check github, please.

Main
- NeoGeo: romwait/pwait xml options to fix audio in some games (paulb-nl).
- Rework HDR options. Use HDR=1 as most reliable one. (Sam Hardeman).

NeoGeo:
- Audio fixes (paulb-nl).

ZXNext:
- Revert previous change to fix Basic save function.
- Updated framework.

A real FPGA implementation of the Roland MT-32, not the software emulated MT32-pi.

by incidence mostly large cores such as ao486 and Minimig take advantage of MT32/MIDI, so there is anyway no space for MT32 left on FPGA. MT32 in FPGA itself should be quite large. So MT32pi is a good and budget alternative.

Gameboy:
- Fix audio output (Mark Johnson).
- HDMA, audio and video fixes (paulb-nl).
- Separate MGL files for GB color and Magaduck (Roberto Garcia-Lago).

TurboGrafx16/CD:
- Correct interrupt logic, support for XE1AP analog controller (David Shadoff).
- Updated framework.

NeoGeo:
- Fix rendering the last two sprites (paulb-nl).

Gyro sensors are tend to spam with messages a lot. It slowing down the processing and may affect the core work. It also introduce a large input lag because each gyro message has to be processed even if it's not used. So gamepads with gyroscope such as DS3-5 have workarounds to block gyro messages at kernel level, so they won't reach the Main.

ao486:

- Add CPU rating presets (newsdee, spark2k06, me).

Note: it's very approximate rating and doesn't provide cycle accuracy. Depending on specific application it may run either faster or slower than advertised rating.

VIC20:

• Adjust screen position on VGA output.

VIC20:

• Update CPU.
• Update VIC for better NTSC support.
