And let everybody use it on whatever want.
It’s not the closed source model that’s holding things back. The MorphOS developers today represents the brightest and most skilled developers in the entire Amiga sphere, their low level OS development skills (in quality and quantity) can’t be seen anywhere else. If the MorphOS Team would drop it, nobody else could pick up the ball and do better. If they can’t find the time or motivation to go on, then it is what it is.
But they haven’t dropped the ball. I just hope they would have put the migration to a HW platform still alive a little bit higher on their priority list. Things feel kind of hopeless with PPC now, and tied to this there is no future whatsoever, so there is no point with anything really. My whole interest with MorphOS from the beginning, was a new Amiga platform *going forward*, something Next Generation, an alternative platform on modern hardware. It was never retro computing. But Retro is what MorphOS becomes on the PPC with no hope of becoming something else.
MorphOS is Amiga
done right! MorphOS NG will be AROS
done right!
