I'm thinking of financing the porting of Wayfarer Browser Odyssey still works with some limitations the system is quite stable we have continuous updates and I wanted to gratify the work of those who support our beloved platform I will let you know in a few months if all this is possible :D

All Best

as far as I know it is not easy because wayfarer is specific developed for morphos. And it is of course not done with the port, you would need someone who updates it. But interesting to hear from you about it

How different really are the APIs between MorphOS and AROS? The beloved MPlayer app we have on AROS was ported to MorphOS first.

That's notable,

Other than being Morph's browser, what's to recommend it over Pale Moon?
Just trying to figure it out, not contradicting - genius.

Them whom say it can't be done ought not interrupt those doing it.

Let me understand maybe I'm a stupid who would port another browser, remember that I'm still collaborating without any help from other users to create software for AROS and some of them are porting one in particular at the moment, I do not care that these programmers do not get a penny from anyone everyone has a conscience,  Then there are the pillars that work for free for us and so I also support them by doing so and I am happy and gratified, anyway the wayfarer question is not over I'm waiting for answers

How much is too much? Maybe we could all contribute.

That's fairly cheap for a very skilled freelance / professional: it's around 10 days of work.

I don't think that 10 days will be enough for completing the huge task...

I think it's more than 10 days of work maybe a month

This is because he is not interested in AROS, on MorphOS he distributes Wayfarer for free :o

Yup, I can relate to this. If he needs to do something that does not interest him (AROS), then he needs another incentive for work. Also based on my experience with Odyssey, it is going to be far from straightforward re-compilation, so 5000 euro sounds like a bargain to me. Wish I had 5k free cash to sponsor that :)
