Hi Paul!
I know it is probably not the thing what most people here would want
to hear but IMO
it would be less time consuming to port FreeMiNT/TOS APIs, VDI and AES
on top of the
current NetBSD/FreeBSD codebase then trying to implement the necessary
functionality
into the FreeMiNT kernel itself. We could nicely call it e.g.
Mint(Free|Net)BSD! :)
There you get all the apps bundled.... m68k specific patches could
still be applied from
their SpareMiNT RPMs. And you might even get cross-compile capable
packaging
system.
But that's probably way off the discussion here. I am just trying to
put man-years quote
on the work to be done to reach the goal...
