I agree with Kolla. While having a web browser that works on more websites would be nice, I think there are more important things to focus on, like a new picture.datatype. A bounty to have IBrowse open-sourced might work, if someone wants to dedicate themselves to writing a CSS engine for it. But then again we do have Merlin, which could evolve into quite a usable browser and already works on systems that OWB and Netsurf wouldn't have a chance of running on.

I also agree with Cammy, if we're going to get these games finished we need somewhere to discuss and work on them, just like our old Underground Arcade forum, and if it was IBrowse compatible it'd be a huge bonus since I could pixel in Personal Paint, chat in WookieChat, and keep an eye on the development forum all from my A1200, which is my system of choice above anything else.

Also, on the topic of 68000 and 020+ code, after seeing how well Workbench and those AGA games run on a fast 68000 softcore, I think it's really important to keep developing 68k and 020+ binaries so these newer Amiga-compatible systems will run them (and run them faster than a 020 would anyway).

I'll always be here, willing to work on any classic Amiga software. I'm only a pixel artist but Amiga applications and games still need graphics.
Amiga user forever.
