    Well, some form of office suite would be nice. There were thoughts of converting Libre Office, but that seems to be a big project, but maybe you're capable of taking that on? If not possible, then maybe as a start, some really good wordprocessor, with good graphics handling/import/editing would be where to begin, with all the usual capabilities such as Cut, Paste, Copy, and Font handling for True/Open Type Font support.

    If you were thinking of smaller software projects where do you have expertise, in which area of software or hardware?

    For 2025 ...

    I'd like to see better support for DVDRW-Dual Layer disc authoring. I know this has been thought of by some as a waste of effort, but as we don't have Blu-Ray disc support then DVDR-DL would be the best we could have with the current hardware, and I would find the additional recordable disc storage space to be definitely a benefit. Also support for Mac formatted discs as sometimes there is data on them that can be used on MorphOS systems, though on a Dual-Boot MorphOS/Mac system you can boot to the Mac OS and access the disc from there, but it would be so much easier to be able to access it without having to do so. Amiga's CD file system used to be able to access Mac "Classic" CDs even though it used the HFS disc format, but it doesn't seem to have this option so it doesn't work on MorphOS AFAIK? :-(

    I'd also like to see the "printers" issues fixed, as trying to print some page(s) out only to get issues with the prints is really annoying ... and a waste of paper! ;-)
