Speaking on Patreon, they said:
On top of better Linux support, the developer noted they have been working on improved support for PS3 dynamic link libraries and a new loading mode that helps more games to work.
The emulator is still in the early stages, but it's good to see one being made in the open. I fully believe emulators are important, especially when the original units stop being sold.
I compiled it from the GitHub and here's the interface as of right now:
I don't have any PS3 roms to test it myself, but it at least compiles to give you the UI.

He probably had firmware in mind, when he said 'rom'. These emulators require system software ripped from the actual ROM chips of a console.
