Good luck hoping for that!

They sold their "first .com domain" to some guy who… seems to be a domain squatter (although he writes a lot about not being one).

Companies that eager to make a quick buck are usually not the ones open-sourcing their stuff.

It certainly feels like the people in the Amiga space. They'll milk their cow until its last drop of blood.

I'm not familiar with this culture. Can you expand on it?

I would guess that they mean Hyperion, which owns the name and IP. It develops AmigaOS 4.x for PowerPC Amigas:

And also AmigaOS 3.2 for old 680x0 Amigas:

this is the guy who presumably sold the original domain, http://www.symbolics-dks.com/

That'd be INSANELY cool.

Let's go a bit further then.

Next, open source SCOPE, NOS/VE and PLATO!

For nostalgia purposes, I'd like to see MUSIC & MUSIC/SP source with a fully open license. It was on our mainframe at uni in the 1990s.

Do we have a wishlist for version 2.4? I'd go for s390x and 64-bit addressing support.

I haven't interacted with the system in decades. I have some wishlist items from since then but I really need to give the demo some time to have an updated list. Those two alone seem sufficient for a release though.

McGill will need to open-source it first. I'd suggest AGPL for the license ;-)
