My predictions, it will be based on OS-9000 and programmed by a VMS guru in COBOL, who rather likes the way MP/M 68K does things. In response to alpha testing complaints, GEM API support will be added. Beta testers with RTC hardware find it has the millenium bug, development having presumably occurred on pre-2000 Amiga hardware with the batteries cut off due to leakage. They also complain that enabling USB seems to make the clock the default cursor. Backward compatibility is thoughtfully provided by an x86 binary of UAE on the install disk.
