With Aros68k, Aros Kickstart, and new 68k systems we will probably worry much less than we do now. Maybe we will be more at-ease when that happens. The new FPGA systems, I believe, will eventually bring PPC back in some way. If Freescale jumps onboard there may even be a 68k revival. If they do not,oh well.

Are there tools for converting OS4.x to Arm? Will it allow a port to be easy.
Easy is a relative term.
PPC, just tell an Amigan it can't be done. Chuckle.
I guess FPGA would allow Amiga OS4.x classic to live a little longer.

I am wondering what the Tool Chain is going to look like when Natami and Replay get released. It appears to me that getting a programing package is not as strait foreward as it could be. Some will want to use their new machines to write programs.
Hopefully, I am wrong and there is some ready made software.
I would have to agree with an early post on making our own platform.
To me what is left is Amiga Preservation. This could be Source Code/ Binaries/ Documentation, Video, and Audio.
Sorry, this is off topic. Sorry Fanko.

Aros is at 51.72%.
Arm is bi-endian.

Since Aros is at 50%, what do we do now?
It seems that documenation, application creation, os programming are the high-lights.
Edit
Did we just vote on something?
