You are obviously not familiar with the cuurent state of AROS.

One of the main problems is that they are shooting for 3.1 compatibility whilst we were aiming for 3.9.

Moreover, some of the AROS work is not entirely compatible with OS 3.1. DOS and Intuition come to mind.

Well intuition isn't too bad, MOS have helped us make it compatible, but yes our DOS library is really incompatibile becuase we didn't want to implement that nasty Tripos packet stuff, wrappers exist though.

3.9... wouldn't really be much not than adding a few function here and there (I only know of a few functions that were added in Exec..., which we do plan to implement), maybe you didn't want to implemtn these features and then be bound to the licence and allow AROS to gain that functionality? But that is just a possibility ;-)

Mind you, a new conspiracy theory forms in my head.

Is it possible that those favoured the Imperial side in Star Wars went for the Pegasos, and those who favoured the Rebels for OS4? :-)

I must confess I was a fan of Darth Vader :-)

Yeah, long live the imperial Army... Black is way sexier than white :-)

Cough...

I don't need to remind you what happened at the end of "Return of the Jedi", do I :-)

Empire strikes back... much better :-D Even goody goody Luke S. goes for the Black garb... nice...

Besides, if the analogy holds, you know is going to prevail.

Bobba was a bounty hunter... then I guess that is sort of where AROS is :-?

Bobba Fett was also swallowed by a hungry hole with teeth
... So perhaps it's not a very good role model.
 
Not to mention his father getting decapitated by a Jedi
master!

Just remember that right at the end, Vader (MOS) will change sides and help the rebels (AOS) by killing the emperor (AROS), before dying himself :-P

Aggghhhhh, What have we done!!!!!!  :-o

[bloodline]

But the parallels are spooky!!!

Vader (MOS) needs the Emperor (AROS) for his "darkside force" (source code).

see!!!! see!!!!

APL (AROS Public Lincence) was created so that while AROS is and will remain Opensource and free, it can also be used in comercial projects... MOS for example  :-D
