@Vox.

Sediously?
In the very same post you've claimed OS4 stuff like OS4 developments like html5 and OWB are ported not developed in a negative way, yet the stuff you claim as a positive for MOS is also largely "ported, not developed".
Do you even think before you type these days?
Also, what exactly do you think porting means? It often, ironically, requires quite some development to port software.

Yeah I realise that and fab has created a nice browser, and to be honest I misread the post I responded to a little.
The idea however wasnt to belittle fab's work, but rather to question the, "goose, not gander" mentality.

The porting/development distinction was me dismissing the idea that porting things doesnt require actual development (especially larger software lacking any sort of exec/intuition/etc codepaths/support). In fact its probably easier at times to borrow code for "original" software than to port existing software. Not that I have to tell you this Im sure. Merely for the sake of clarification.
