Or we can expect a multi-os screemweaver?
That's correct. I haven't had a change to plot the road-map yet, but roughly the folowing should happen:

1) Get Screenweaver 3 OS working properly with its current feature set.
2) Extend the package to support sync io using external interfaces.

In paralel, we should work on player that is Netscape based. It shouldn't rely on any proprietary technology for compilation - perhaps GCC would be a good choice. For OS interaction we could rely on a package like wxWindows or similar.

Once the cross-platform player is reality we can start porting the Screenweaver 3 OS project management and player extensions to work with the new x-platform player. At that point we've arrived at Screenweaver 4 OS.

Wether the above scenario will unfold or not is totaly dependend on how much time the community can contribute to the project. I'll do my best to contribute a lot, but the time I can invest will be limited since I'm supposed to write the final thesis for my studies during the next 12 months.

Cheers,
Edwin
