I know - the GUI issue, however, repeatedly managed to stall development work. Unless something like a miracle happens, I'd rather not rely upon having a GUI ready to ship with the product.

Well I am one of many (I guess) who contacted you over the years about possibility to buy 68k version of Roadshow, and you know what, i am still interested :-)

About the GUI and price. I think that the availability of the GUI would affect the price significantly. I mean the €10-15 for digital distribution sounds fair to me for GUIess version while the package with GUI incl. could be €25-35? (Would be more few years back...)

I'd rather see Roadshow 68k released with a decent documentation while there is still sufficient enthusiasm for the product. If you ship a product, you can update it. But if you never ship it...


Cool. I just wanted say that GUI would justify higher price. I personaly dont need GUI at all. And I guess after people setup Roadshow for the first time without GUI there will be no way how to charge any more money for separate GUI later. Even though add GUI later on would be still nice.

I dont get it, why so many people think open sourcing will save the world. It works well on platforms with large communities of developers and users but its not our current situation. Olaf is around for ages, take care, Raidshow works great as part of OS4, will work great as 68k tcp/ip stack, there are people who would like to purchase it.

So whats kolla's (and few others) problem?
