Development Plan

This seems like a very detailed plan for AROS development. And thank you for your hard work and dedication. 

What is Intuition WM and how can we use it ? Is it based on AxRuntime as well ?

Oh, that's great.

Wow! That's really nice features for window management.

With some icon integration between Linux and AROS as far as a consistent theme then one might have the impression of simply running AROS instead of Linux and AROS.

Well done!

Thanks to me interested in using native aros is interesting implementation of the emulator on x64

Any chance for screen dragging, too?

I don't know yet.

I just found this topic and read through it. It is a nice roadmap for AROS development.

I noticed some discussion around a Linux distribution. As a long-time Linux user and administrator since I stopped using my Amiga in 1999, I am quite familiar with the OS. I think creating an entire Linux distribution is kind of a lot of work. The effort presented here could be made into some software package for an existing distribution which configures it to behave as closely as possible to how a classic Amiga behaved. Automatic login and running of IntuitionWM is relatively easy.

If I would do something with Linux I would plan to do exactly this. I would select a popular and appropriate distribution and would try to create something that sits upon it using a amiga desktop like scalos (if hopefully available) and aros components. The ground work like security patches should come from the linux distribution used as base. Everything else would be too much work and more probpably be like a full-time job

Hello,

Due to ArosExec going down in about a month, I moved this thread to arosworld.org. Thread is now locked.
