I think AROS is great though, why AMIGA Inc just didn't have those guys move it I will never know.
Thanks for the compliment.
The reason is that Amiga Inc. is not ready for Open Source. (And given the latest Status Update they probably never will be) There were some discussions with Gary about using AROS in Amiga Inc. but they wanted the privilege to release it under a non-Open Source license but the majority of the AROS developers were against it.
I don't think there is anything wrong with this thinking of Amiga Inc. It's just that it is incompatible with the AROS license.
Also AROS was evolving at a slow pace at that time which was also not good for marketing purposes either.
