christophe Decanini noticed there's an interview (in French and (English) with Ralph Schmidt of MorphOs fame on on AmigaImpact. He also provided a summary (read more below).
  • Limited (68k) support of mediator if no use of MMU tricks.
  • Support of G-REX hardware (G-REX software is done by MorphOS team).
  • Eyetech products support will be decided once available.
  • Elbox did not contact Morphos team and MorphOS team do not think a lot of PPC owner will adopt mediator.
  • MorphOS team members are part of Bplan, MorphOS will run on Bplan hardware. There will be an announcement early december.
  • Morphos need to be working stable on CyberstormPPC and Blizzard PPC to be sell as a commercial product then MorphOS will be hardware independent to run on new bplan hardware. Perhaps it will also run on Macintosh. No X86 port expected.
  • Recompiling a warpup application is the only way to run it on MorphOS.
  • Name of developers for MorphOS application will be anounced in december.
  • Not decided yet on how MorphOS will be sell. OEM, from Vapor online web or from other distributors.
  • MorphOS team could adopt the type of developpers structure Vapor is using today.
  • A third beta version of MorphOS should be out in next weeks with PPC version of MUI, YAM, CED, MagicMenu, AmiTCP, ADE. All PPC users should try it and give feedbacks to enhance MorphOS.
I did not verify every point of this summary, please visit the original in case of any doubts.

In reply to Comment 38 (Andy Hall):
EXACTLY. I thing you got the right point, and to be honest I WANT to support ANY
development on the amiga platform , BUT I'm not rich enough.
And also I belive we are very few people in the community to support too many different approaches in the amiga platform..
Developing for amiga IS NOT ALWAYS GOOD FOR THE COMMUNITY.
Mister Ralph I have a question about you... but not ONLY for you.
As I can see you have leadership abilities so I challenge you for community's sake
Why don't you approach all major SW/HW developers to find a common solution ?
Going alone means you can't take ALL the community with you even if your solution is the best.
If the community split again will die and for you and ALL the OTHERS developers will be a wasted time with no profit.
Ofcourse all these are self explained if behind of all this is HATE.
YES this is the way to REVENGE H&P, Elbox, DCE Eyetech, etc.
This words going to ALL developers that didn't try to cooperate with others, I'm writing to you because this article is for you.
Hope at least you, know what are you doing for community's sake.
