This is a combination of the posts we made in this AmigaWorld.net thread:
AmigaOS 4.1 BETA PowerPCWe are posting it here at the request of
Kurt Grach. We don't think there is a problem here at MorphZone, but we are honoring the request.
Yesterday, Dennis Clarke of Blastwave posted this blog:
Seen in the wild : AmigaOS 4.1 BETA PowerPC...Way to go there you funny looking little pink squirrel. Now then .. stop crashing my webstats script and go collect nuts elsewhere.That funny little pink squirrel ended up creating a few problems. Have a look at the comments.
Today, Dennis posted this:
My perspective on the MorphOS AmigaOS issue.Of course, both of these blogs popped up on
planetsolaris too (scroll down). We wonder how long we will be taken seriously if we can't work out these problems here and not everywhere else. This should not be a struggle between MorphOS and AmigaOSX.X. It hurts everyone interested in the Community.
Let us add this by way of explanation...
1. We get an email from a developer using an EFIKA based Open Client working in a Lab (in Budapest actually). He sends us some neat pictures.
2. We write a blog about it:
LabVIEW. We send the link to the LabVIEW Project Manager at National Instruments (big company, real products, lots of revenue).
3. The LabView Project Manager follows the link in the blog to the new PowerDeveloper
LabVIEW Embedded Forum.
4. He
registers. He
posts.
LabVIEW would be a cool thing to have for MorphOS or AmigaOSX.X. Will it happen? We are not sure, but a port is now underway for the EFIKA.
Can you see how this could work if we approached the opportunity of the original interest and curiousty more positively?
There is still plenty of opportunity for all Amiga oriented operating systems.
