My impression (also hearsay) was that the Rev team is using
*something else* besides CodeWarrior to create an OS9 version, it's
probably require major rewriting (and that's a lot harder than
importing a HC stack!) and that is the reason for the delays.
I would not assume that Codewarrior is the only game in town, nor
that Rev's silence about it would indicate that they have given up on
9. Not only have they the formidable task of rebuilding the app with
a new compiler, but also adding the new feature set and making sure
it's synchronized with the other platforms.
It has been announced by Rev enough times that their commitment to
the platform is not over and until they say otherwise, I'd bet
they'll keep their promise.

So what exactly is the status of Revolution on OS9? Has there been an
announcement about it? The Runrev Site does not advertise compatibility,
however you can order RR Studio Classic from the Rev online shop. If
anybody knows, could they please tell.
I don't have the inside word on anything, but the point of my original
posting is that CodeWarrior for the Mac is *dead* officially as of
last week. And since that's what the OS9 rev engine is built with, I
don't expect any future updates, and that would include the 2.7
builds. That in spite of the outdated notes on the web site - I rather
expect those to disappear soon as well. My guess would be that the
2.6.1 engine is the end of the line for OS9.
