I'm confused...AFAIK, Thomas was deeply involved in OS4.0 development for a time. I assume he was in charge of the shell and the console, but also heard he was reverse-engineering a PPC version of Arexx and developing the new printing system. Whatever the case, he'll be sorely missed.
But Atari programming??? At least AmigaOS has a chance of going somewhere... Or maybe that's the point? For a skilled programmer like himself, Amiga coding isn't strictly a "hobbyist" thing anymore. Or maybe he just *really* likes 68K processors? :-/
