mmm... I smell AROS port :-D


Ambient was generally seen as by far the weakest part of MorphOS. Whoever ports it to AROS better be ready to work on it a lot.

Pity the WarpOS / PowerUP emulation didn't go GPL...


There's nothing magical about the WOS/PUP emulation, it's a wrapper, with some simple tricks for register handling, AFAIR. OS4 can't do such tricks because of its lib stub system and other limitations. If OS4 is ever to do the nice stuff MOS does, it'll need some really convoluted solutions.
