API re-implementation status for AROS
« on: November 10, 2008, 01:34:40 PM »
In April 2008 Krzysztof Smiechowicz undertook a project aimed at reviewing the AmigaOS 3.1 API re-implementation status in AROS to better understand what is needed to achieve goal no 1. of the AROS roadmap (http://aros.sourceforge.net/documentation/developers/roadmap.php).

The project is now completed and the total score is 80%.

The details per each AmigaOS 3.1 module can be found at http://aros.sourceforge.net/introduction/status/everything.php. This resource gives a clear overview of that is currently available on AROS in terms of AmigaOS 3.1 API. If you are interested in helping in development of AROS system componens, please browse the status report to gain basic information :)

Amazing that AROS has a roadmap but AmigaOS4.* seems to lack one.

Why is it taking the AROS people 75 years to make an Amiga OS clone when it only took Genesi like a year?

Endianess? Resources? Large hardware base?

Bear in mind as well that no one's being paid to work on AROS, and that parts of MorphOS are based on AROS code.

I wonder how much the motivation to get things done on AROS would increase if they'd settle on what AROS stands for. Is the R for research or replacement or what? Then again, the UAE folks can't decide what UAE stands for and look at what they came up with.
