We NEED AmigaOS to go open source

[PulsatingQuasar]

If you talk about wasting time on a certain OS then if you look at it rationally only Linux is the good choice. No matter which of the three you choose, they are always going to lag behind the most current developments in hardware.

Even if you would combine all programmers on the three platforms you would seriously lack a lot of development time to play catch up with Windows or Linux.

So, it's anyones choice on what system he or she wants to spend time.

That's a lost game anyways, the basic features are hopelessly outdated and not suitable for the modern world. The only option is to create new OS inspired by "the amiga experience" and throwing all compatibility over board. It was something like this many of us wished for back when Gateway and Collas was running the show. Or wished MorphOS would do.



Ofcourse.

That's not going to work as an opensource project. That is going to take way too much time for which you won't find enough spare time programmers.

Linux got only this far because it is sponsored on a yearly basis by millions of Dollars. Either because people are employed at companies to work on Linux related stuff or via other constructions.

Complete operating systems and programs running on it can not be created by merely open sourcing it. You still need a shit load of cash to have full time programmers working on it. That only works for Linux and nothing else.
