Hi! I guess some coder may be interested in helping Deron to update Pagestream:
***************************************************************** Hello, I figured I would post this here first, and maybe a few kind souls would spread it around. I have done most of the work for the PageStream Amiga version, and we have had success here getting people to fire up and run it, but the truth is I am just swamped with work and all of this time I have spent on the Amiga version has made the rest of my work suffer greatly. I am beginning to think that finding someone to help out with the Amiga specific code (that would be Classic, OS4, MorphOS and even AROS) would be to my advantage in the long run. This person would be responsible for working on the MUI (or even later Reaction), and helping with the debugging on those platforms. A few MUI classes need to be written, or features extended, and general Amiga/MUI debugging. Considering the size and sales of the Amiga market, this will certainly not be some full time job. More like someone who is an Amiga enthusiast who is proficient with MUI, and has free time that they would like to profit from. All work would be done over the internet of course. I'm flexible with regards to business arrangements. Either flat rate, royalties, co-license, or some mix. I wouldn't expect this to net more than a few thousand USD, unless by some miracle the Amiga makes a significant comeback. I'm not looking to make a profit on the Amiga myself at this point, but I won't be taking a loss either. The code itself in question is a library layer that sits between PageStream itself and the OS. The programmer won't be weeding through PageStream code, or even hundreds of requester implementations etc. The code is about 3.5mb in total, but that includes the Mac Carbon, Windows and Gnome/gtk implementations as well. It compiles on its own, and can be tested with the PageStream 5.0 binaries, or a few test apps. If any of you have some thoughts on the matter as well, I would love the feedback. Maybe I am nuts to even consider this...
