In my opinion, PearPC is _NOT_ even an interesting option yet. It's unusable as it is and that will not change in next couple of years, if ever.

About the next release of MorphOS.. I think it would be best to release a small update with some critical elements stuffed in (like tcp/ip-stack, Ambient imrovements etc.) soon, call it MOS1.5 if you want. And then release the major version as 2.0 or whatever.

Waiting a year before releasing the next release will be the biggest and (and probably the last) mistake MOS devs will make.
