Hey All, i messed around with ICaros some time ago -- it seemed limited like the several "new" OSs I have tried in the past, primarily and likely cuz they were beta versions and the such. now I see this amigaos-ish has evolved into a new era --- time to test. Wish there was a "how or where to start" page -- to get going...,. but am trying to figure it out. anyway - just saying "Hi". Peace..

For the basis for a possible new browser, I don't know if this could be of any interest: [url]https://hackaday.com/2024/07/02/fork-ladybird-browser-and-serenityos-to-go-separate-ways/#more-693495[/url] Cheers, Nigel.

There has been a delay when it comes to the new edition of Feedback for AROS. The new interface is not done yet, but hopefully we'll be able to bring out this as a summer release in July/August. At the moment we are working on getting the diskmag Versus on Classic done.

about odyssey I found alternatives on the web of course I can't watch a football match or some films or dramas in general on television but this is not a problem for me

i commissioned several amiga software written with hollywood from jvp

[quote name=Studenteer post=5704]@Studenteer - An idea of getting away of Browsers: ArosPDF could getting updated in options and style.

In Amiga there are many possibilities.

Cheers, Nigel.[/quote] Wayfarer needs a complex library (I'm sorry because I don't remember its name) and this is the reason because the browser can't be port for AmigaOS4, but perhaps a good solution I think, will be update the OWB among the fans of the three systems, AROS, MorphOS and AmigaOS4, although OWB can't open Paypal, etc., yes the browser be able to open normal pages without problems, in MorphOS still is the better solution to surf the internet, because it is light and fast, a common bounty is a good solution, other thing is putting the fans of three systems in agreement, when there have been private interests so that there would be that painful rivalry that we have and have had.

The commercial ventures that use AROS could be asked to chip in some money

Surely, amiga-news.de will pop up the news as usual for all those concerning the amiga world.

Great:) Thank you

Jacadcaps has replied and is willing to talk to us and do a discovery story to check whether this is possible. A bounty, it seems, will be necessary. I will now start the conversation between Jacadcaps, Deadwood, and myself. I will keep everyone posted as soon as there is anything to report.

Pikewerfer Thank you for the thoughtful initiative, hopefully it goes well:)

Would we be considering a 64 bit version for AROS x86-64 as well as a 32 bit version for AROS x86? Or just a 32 bit version of the browser?
