any OS developer who thinks that "less than 100% compatibility/stability" is OK and actually something to *aim for*, shouldn't be taken seriously as well!

You might want to rethink that statement as MorphOS isn't 100% compatible with Amiga software. ;)

Well then, this sounds like a plan! Go ahead! :)

Maybe you meant to say that some Amiga SW isn't 100% compatible to a system that's missing Amiga HW?

No. Reread the Morphzone threads. It's about lack of Planar screens on RTG, which AmigaOS4/Picasso handles, but was removed from CGX and clearly noted in the notes in ModePro mode promotion s/w. Not making a big deal of it, but still...

Nope, there are programs that work on OS4 on systems that lack Amiga hardware too, OctaMED being one example.

It's OK to not be 100% compatible you know.

Ironically, I'm busy fixing compatibility issues right now.  (Between AROS network includes and POSIX requirements...)

What is the status of this project? Seems very little has been happening or it's very quiet.

The last entry on Facebook says they'll be represented at a California Linux event on THURSDAY 20/02/14.  Unfortunately the event started on Friday the 21st....

i wonder what it means "arix compiled".. so an app needs to be particularly compiled for multicore usage. i somehow hoped aros api would be taken over with only the most necessary extensions not to cause another split.

I do not know if that is really meant. The lowlevel stuff is changed so they certainly have their own hidden infrastructure to compile it. On top of it is Aros. As a example Jason said he would contribute all changes to the normal AROS ABI1. i can remember one screenshot showing a Magellan icon on it so I think from a application view AROS and ARIX will be the same, everything different would be a disaster.

@terminills

looks like we have contradicting information in this thread:

http://amigaworld.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?mode=viewtopic&topic_id=38492&forum=2&start=20&viewmode=flat&order=0

looks like arix will be able to run aros binaries (v1?), that means the backward compatibility will be granted (but aros v1 has no significant application pool nevertheless except what gets compiled in the contribs, so what?). then it seems arix extensions will need to be backported to aros to grant future binary compatibility even though aros may not be able to take advantage of certain features such as multicore support.

Heh. I guess social media will be the place to watch first, since that's where the bit about NDAs being active appeared a few weeks ago. But who knows?

Hmm, went to the page to see if a demonstration video was up yet and the page is down.
