Great news, even if it is just a "Maybe" it can get written in the future. That is better than an answer of "No" it will never work.

Wish I was smart enough to work on stuff like that, but from what I have read over the last couple of years, hardware drivers are very difficult to write, and take a lot of time and effort.

I am sure that they require more smarts (or at least technical knowledge) than I currently possess. Too bad there isn't some "Dummie" work that someone like me, or other MorphOS users, could do, while you are working on your other projects, so there would be less work for you to do when you finally have the free time to work on MorphOS FireWire software.
