Depending on the update, really.

Some your suggestions make perfect sense.

There is one AGA/RTG CSS capable web browser on the way ( see merlin http://home.planet.nl/~spijk336/browser/home.html )
There is an ext2 (/3?) driver, ntfs i've seen either for mos or os4 or something, but why would we need nfs?

This would be practical practical
-A fully working version of MUI or an AROS optimized zune port
-A decent CD/DVD filesystem handler that supportd UDF, Multisessions, Dual layer DVDs
-An integrated CD/DVD burner application
-New and highly optimized BMP, PNG and TIFF datatypes


Maybe you should read this, focusing on common ground could be the way to go.

Which would either mean MUI4 or Zune, updated libraries to at least provide some compatibility with os4/mos/aros. SDL for AGA is something i miss, all apps are RTG these days, disregarding the fact that AGA is good enough with http://aminet.net/package/util/misc/gfxroute http://aminet.net/package/util/boot/fblit http://www.platon42.de/files/util/TLSFMem.lha http://aminet.net/package/util/boot/SystemPatch299 add some http://aminet.net/package/util/boot/BlizKick if capable, stir and you get a pretty snappy aga, If you were to command os39 to store icons and images in fast ram, its even faster (duh)  .

A p96 AGA hack/driver would be neat.
