I guess that's why it's scheduled "every 3/4 weeks", so as not to become TOO regular


Exactly !

First, I'll take this as a sign that things are about to happen real fast.

Second, who really cares what Fleecy has to say.  They are basically just resellers of the product  at this point and it seems clear that Ben doesn't even need them around to make things happen.

The DE is plain dead and was dumb to begin with.

Now, I'm excited again!

Cool! :-)
BTW, feel free to go back in the previous "submit your questions to Ben"-thread to dig for some more questions. Many unanswered questions there were kind of interesting IMO. ;-)
MorphOS is Amiga done right! :)

I'm looking forward to this Q/A as well- until Genesi tells them to drop it :)
That was completely inappropriate and unappreciated.

/me is happy that these companies(or employees at least but I don't think Ben'd do this if Hyperion told him not to)  have realized what we want. If anyone bashes the Q&A of Ben of Fleecy they deserve no less than  :smack:   oh, thats a bloody little smiley isn't it? Never noticed before .  ;-)

Ben excites me more though cause he knows more about OS4.

Have one question already, can answer here if you want :-)  :

As an experienced coder, what do you think about the Amizilla project.. can it be pulled off?

every 3/4 weeks untill the release of OS4


If OS4 is indeed only a short time away, doesnt that mean only a few interviews at most??? why not continue for a short period (a few months) after its release, as im sure that some questions, fixes and OS updates will still be relevant. And the post release questions and feedback will be of far more interest then pre-release at a guess!

@wayne, stop your whining and just delete it (then edit this sentance out of my post) By replying to it and not removing it, that just makes 2 crap posts instead of 1 (now 2.5) in an otherwise schweet thread...

That'd be just fuel to the flames. I can see in capitals "PRO Genesi censorship on Amiga.org".... brr... laughable. Wayne manages the situation admirably.

If I removed that comment from the original response, I would be slammed as a "pro Genesi censor" and you know it.  Editing the post is exactly the reaction the original poster might have been hoping for.

This way, I state my objection while not taking action against the original.  Besides, it wasn't actually a slam, nor was it against our posting guidelines.  It *was* however unneccessary and unappreciated, hence my statement.

Have a great day!

(Edit: didn't see Warface' post in response to yours before posting this.  Thanks for the support!).

Good idea, about time we has some news on OS4.
A Blog on progress of AOS 4 would be a great idea as well. So we get a good idea on how OS4 is progressing right upto release date.

A more informative AOS4 website would be handy with screenshots, features and notes for developers as well. Also some tips on migrating os3.x apps to OS4 would be useful just to get some apps out ready for release when OS4 appears!
