    My vote goes to AmiGG (IM for very popular in Poland Gadu-Gadu network).

    But OS4Emu is also nice :-).

    Ext2FS and SGIXfs are NOT ports. They are both written completely from scratch.

    Well, what's it going to be? Are we going to do a poll? Or did all mentioned sofware reach first place? Else?

    Either way, applause indeed for all the hard working and a couple of :bloons: :-)

    How about Aweb?

    The new beta versions of Aweb came out in 2004
    compiled natively for MOS.

    Aweb isnt bad, but its still got a long way to go. For example I cant even enter the hotlistmanager without my system locking up. Other then that its looking to be a good browser. I hope some serious work is being done since its looking like it will be the only PPC native browser you can get for some time to come. Voyager isnt supported any longer and iBrowse seems all but dead in development for our platform.

    Hi Acill,

    The bug you describe is a problem of the cvs
    snapshot you have tried. It should be
    fixed before the next official release.

    Personally I was a big fan of Ibrowse for many years.
    While Aweb always did some things better than V and IBrowse
    in general Ibrowse and Voyager were two years ago
    in many ways better than Aweb.

    But for V and ibrowse came no new releases
    during the last years - in this time the Aweb crew
    has added many features and fixed many bugs.
    Aweb has noticeable improved during the last year.

    I think the next Aweb release will in many
    ways a noticeable improvement.

    Cheers
    Gunnar

    bump again. made the topic sticky.

    hey Gelb, how many of the AZ softs should be listed? I mean if you actually jump up and down, and ANR is listed again... We might as well not bother to vote :-P We know what is everyone's favorite :lol:

    Btw... if ports were considered original author(s) should be awarded rather than porting guy. Giving recognition to some lonely Linux coder is not bad idea IMO.

    Thats a really good point! However, if the port has some kind of snazzy MUI gui and other goodies added, maybe both should be recognized? (a good example is the MAME port).
