Threats to legality?

With regards to http://merlancia.us/amiga-hyperion/35-5decmcewenexhibit5show_case_doc.pdf mentioned in the Hyperion Entertainment entry, should some mention of AROS's potentially disputed legality be mentioned here? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.104.34.212 (talk • contribs) 2007-12-23T20:16:45Z

AROS portability and trivia

The AROS Mascot is called Kitty and she is a cartoon that was drawn on the original 68K Classic Amiga systems. The AROS operating system is being ported to i386 and PowerPC systems mostly, but has plans according to the AROS web site of ARM, Sun SPARC, MIPS, and other processing platforms. They are looking for open source developers to port open source programs to AROS for a bounty. It tries to be compatabile with AmigaOS 3.1 at the API level like WINE and UAE. Plus a version of it runs under X86 Linux. An Introduction to AROS should help the article. As well as the FAQS on AROS settle the legal issues and how AROS was made and what it can and cannot do.
