Truth is without a proper buisness-plan (including lots of funding) an ARM-port makes just as much sense as a x86-port. And once such a port would be done you'd still be lacking any decent SW since some stupp isn't portable for various reasons.
Isn't MorphOS being developed for the fun ? Why talking about "business" ? Where's business in fun ? Who's "funding" MacMini port then ?
Just wondering :)

Another point is, while you ditch the 68k-legacy-support, why not completly overhaul the APIs to modern standards ?
Would be a good idea :)
It's funny how despite being fun, and developed entirely in spare time, anything seems to require money, bounty, etc...
I would understand that an ARM isn't being considered because it would take too much resources, hardware isn't really interesting (slow/unsuitable,...), would break compatibility,... But... because of lack of funding ?
Nothing hurts a project more than developers not taking the time to let their community know what is going on.
