Yeah, that?s also my POV. Wanderer will be developed further for sure, and will most likely stay AROS? main desktop as it has the same license model and just belongs to AROS. What I always loved on AmigaOS was its modularity and the freedom of choice, so it?s just up to you what desktop you take! I think it?s a honorable goal to make people more homelike here.

Scalos will help build bridges between AROS and other Amiga-like OSs. One thing I love about AROS is end user has a choice. The more choices there are for AROS, the better it is for the end user.

Dont take me wrong, just curious. Why Scalos port? Isnt Scalos Workbench replacement? Isnt Wanderer Workbench replacement? Wouldnt it be better for AROS to finish, polish and enhance Wanderer? I am new here so it is possible I missed something so feel free to edify me. Have a nice day...

I would prefer having it open, but the bounty requirements seem to be well defined and I am pro if it will motivate the developer and speed up the port. AmigaOS is a highly configurable system and Scalos here (same as Ambient) would be nice.. is there already an initial payment?
Is there any chance for Scalos being open source sometime?

Had you spoken with the actual maintainers of Scalos? They weren't to keen on the idea of having Scalos ported elsewhere from PPC... Actually, it was one of them who wrote the objectives for the bounty. Dammy TeamAROS

A port of Scalos to AROS with as target an archive that can be used to install the software. The following tasks need to be done:
- Adapt build environment to work with AROS (cross)compiler. - Port main program and support libraries - Port Plugins, Modules and datatypes - Port support programs like prefs programs (possibly improve Zune to work with the Scalos MUI programs). - Remove possible endianness problems - Make installing as easy as possible. (I don't think we have already a working replacement for the installer program, so it has to be installed in another way). Licence: Special Agreement (double checking on a few things) Dammy TeamAROS
