- proper AmigaForever ROM path autodetection

OK, I'm a little confused. Does this mean I can use the roms from my Amiga forever CD on WinUAE?

Yes.

...basically because Amiga Forever is WinUAE + licensed AmigaOS (roms + wb).

It's just a W.I.P. (work in progress) "update" -- not sure why the headline says that it has been released.
