I just read an interesting tidbit on ann.lu that Genesi is getting Alan Havemose to port a JVM to MorphOS.

Anyone have any additional details on this?

As for the version of the JVM and who all is working on this with Alan, no clue.  I haven't been able to get a word in to the MorphOS camp in ages.  I guess all the questions and requests I made kind of pushed me away.  I'm curious though, why has there never been a good clear picture of MorphOS in action (a.k.a. screengrab)?  I'd also like to hear what their plans are for alternate processors as well, but that doesn't look likely.

Personal opinion, I like Olaf Barthel's stance on ixemul:  "if a program requires ixemul.library to run, something is wrong".

Quite a coup to get him on board. Dave Haynie is apparently doing some consulting for Hyperion. I wonder what Mike Sinz and all the other lads are up to? Still with Scala perhaps.

Alan is definately an OS genious considering all of the components he worked up for OS3.0.  I haven't seen any confirmation other than rumor with Dave Haynie and Hyperion though, would be a good thing (tm).  No clue what Mike Sinz is doing though, haven't heard from him in ages.
