It is obvious that we need hardware support from wherever possible. In these difficult times we live in, some people cant/wont think positively perhaps due to lack of love to the platform, or maybe for minor economic reasons. No matter how long someone keeps their code private, it doesn't look like they'll be making a fortune out of it any time soon. But i respect that it's theirs, and we can't change that. Anyway, i was thinking about another piece of hardware out of which we could benefit: Firewire. Not sure how easy it would be to get support for that one, but since there's already a quite old "Amiga-ish" history in the form of Macrosystem's Casablanca, wouldn't that help a developer do something for the rest of the Amiga platforms? Casablancas were 040 and 060 machines, that had an option for a Firewire module, based in a SONY pcb. Just an idea there, but whatever we can get additional support for won't hurt us...

I'm not saying FW is better than USB or comparing it with anything, i only wanted to stress that we need hardware support from everything possible. By the way, there's so many makes of DV cameras out there, it might help users do more on the video side.. :)
