GPSoft has agreed to that sum?

They accepted minimum of 5000 australian dollar (=5200 US-Dollar). The rest is Paypal. I got the ok with email from Greg Perry.

And I for one hope that we raise enough to pull this off. This is exactly the sort of interface that AROS is in dire need of!

Would be useful in MorphOS as well...


even though it's already half Magellan by default.

Every time I power on any Amiga I own, I'm using DOpus5. It is the centre from which I do almost everything. Simply the scope to make enhancements and fixes would be worth pledging some money; continuing this software on the new platforms is a fantastic bonus.
