AROS code is rather broken and isn't very useful in praxis.


Care to elaborate?

AFAIR, MOS coders looked at AROS as a potential starting point for MOS in the very beginning. They rejected it as unworkable.


Funny, since MOS uses a lot of AROS code...

I actually prefer a real open source license,


There are a lot more of "real open source" licenses than the BSD one, and I think you'll be surprised to know that GPL, for instance, is a "real open source" license.

FREE CLUE.

Like it or not MOS and AOS are both in a more finished/user friendly state.


MOS is more finished because it uses AROS code, AOS is more finished because it started with an already existing code base.
