Still looks a good while from being usable yet. When will it be binary compatible with AmigaOS?

Other than that, Run UAE in it.  :-P

I like very much the Xen style buttons that provides Zune rather than the classic buttons (look at the execute command buttons)

Can we put a pattern in the wanderer windows or only in its screen for the moment?

It already is, as long as it's run on an Amiga.  :-P  The x86 port will never be binary compatible, but is already source compatible.

We have one developer who is making our PCI drivers "OpenPCI" compatible.
So in a word, yes :-)

The best things, as they say, come to those who wait... that certainly applies to anything Amiga related  :-P

Work is continuing albeit very slowly...
