Position Taken on MUI Version 4 for MorphOS
Under the title link you'll find that MUI's developer Stefan Stuntz has articulated his viewpoint of the situation between his user interface and the MorphOS operating system.
In this communication Ralph Schmidt's statement (amiga-news.de reported) is confirmed, that there was an offer to make the new and future versions of MUI available to Genesi at no charge and also to offer them in shareware form to users of AmigaOS 3.X and OS4.
Further, MUI V4 is nearly completed and there is nothing legally binding that prohibits uniform versions being released for all three of the cited operating systems.
