Amiga Inc.: AmigaAnywhere 2 for registered developers
In a press release Amiga Inc. announced that version 2 of AmigaAnywhere™ (AA2) is available for registered Amiga-SDA-developers.
Additionally an AA2-FAQ-Site has been opened. Here you can read that AA2 and "OS5" is not identical: The first one is a middleware, the second one is decentralized, virtual operating system which will be not finished in the near future. But AA2 will be part of OS5.
Even though middleware is not a new idea because there are already similar products AA2 is different to them because of its simplicity and its features.
