    That is a fair amount of code to be removed from MorphOS, and I suppose much of it needs to be replaced by one or more of the other Dev. Team members, before MorphOS3.10 can be released. But maybe the post from Bigfoot means that the statement saying Tokai refused to allow the MorphOS Dev. Team to continue using his code listed above is not true, and none of that list now needs to be replaced by another programmer.

    I hope that is what Bigfoot meant, and that the departure of Tokai was on good terms, with the possibility of him returning to the team in the future. It is really amazing that so many great programmers do work on MorphOS, for little, or zero compensation. Working for free, specially when anyone is having problems making enough money from a paying job, is hard to justify to yourself, and sometimes more importantly, justifying it to your spouse. No doubt about it, programming takes time away from doing things with your spouse and other family members, and if a person is not making enough money to live on, coding for free also takes time away from time that could potentially be used looking for other paying work, or doing other paying work.
