As a morphOS developer, do you allocate memory following some procedure that enables the Abox to turn on some memory protection in the future when the old amiga apps are not anymore needed?
No, AOS compatability will never disappear from abox, after all this is what abox is about, and it's also why MorphOS is divided into boxes so that you can keep this compatability "indefinitely".
And anyone selling you the idea that you can gradually phase in complete API breakage is talking manure, since you can bet your hiney that as long as something is allowed, someone (read; everyone) will do it, so at the time you think (which again is ludicrous) compatability is no longer needed and you try to flip the switch you'll get a nasty surprise...
