Totally missed the bounty. should have a forum post with donation/bounties listed or stickied somewhere :-)


Speaking of bounties, for those who want to see this prosper on AROS, please check out the Wanderer Update bounty here:

http://power2people.org/projects/profile/70


Many of the "broken" features in the AROS port only do not work because of some of Wanderer's current limitations.

As for me, I totally want to see Dopus as fully featured on AROS as possible as I have always used it on my higher end Amigas and still feel it stomps all all desktops from KDE, Gnome, Windows Shell, to the OS X, and the basic Amiga work bench.

On the other hand, Wanderer would not be so bad if this bounty is fulfilled, perhaps not far off from what MorphOS has got going on.

Ahem, I don't know where do you get your information from, but what you say is simply not true. None of Magellan's features are broken because Wanderer's limitations. There is a single (!) feature (Tools menu) which depends on the AppMenu support, which happens to be covered by the Wanderer bounty, but is a workbench.library limitation. I'm not stopping anybody from donating to the Wanderer bounty, if you want to see it improved please do so, but know that it's not related to Directory Opus Magellan II on AROS in any shape or form.


Oh, I'm sorry, I thought the dragging feature was also broken in older AROS distros like the last IcarOS to release, and that the fix for that was in the latest AROS nightly, but not existent in any of the distros yet?

Of course I should have mentioned that there is also a Magellan bounty (which you picked up) that people can still dontate to. Sorry about that.
