I'm currently (well, when I'm not at work) cleaning up a bunch of QEMU changes, one of them being emulation support for
4000D. I'd expect the 2000D to be very similar (if not nearly identical), so... just PM me a copy of the ROM dump.
Other than that, I have no plans to port ML to this camera, because... it's likely very easy (i.e. doable by other members of the ML community, even without prior experience with Canon internals). It's going to be fully debuggable in QEMU (you can already navigate Canon menus on 4000D and 1300D, and I have no reason to believe it's going to be different on 2000D).
I prefer to focus on researching DIGIC 6/7/8 models, which are a lot more difficult, but even there I need help from somebody who has the camera (and the help should not be just testing, but also coding and debugging). Why? I'm just one random guy doing this in my spare time. There are already 16 camera models already running ML relatively well (not counting 450D, 5D, 1300D and EOSM2), that require maintenance, at least making sure the codebase doesn't break when introducing new features, and so on. Adding nearly 25 new models to the mix is simply not going to scale. To address this, I'm focusing primarily on emulation - both to make it easy for others to get started with development, and also to reduce the need for manual testing (which is extremely time consuming; relying on user feedback is no longer an option).
With emulation, my goal is to be able to check - by pressing a button - whether some code change is going to work on all of the supported camera models, or not. I'm not able to ask 16 people whether the current feature set (with hundreds of menu options) is still working after every code change (let alone 40, after porting ML to the remaining EOS models). I'm able to do so, to a limited extent, in QEMU, although I'm just scratching the surface currently.
Still, every single camera model has specific quirks that are best figured out by somebody who has the camera in their hands. I'm here to help, but unfortunately I'm unable to do much hand-holding (especially on topics previously covered).
