An OS-9 knowledgable friend of mine recently mentioned that there was
now some sort of "standard" windowing interface for OS-9.

Also, since OS-9 has been recently ported to the Int*l chip line (why?!?),
you might start seeing a *lot* of new OS-9 stuff.

Personally, I want OS-9 for my A2000.  Any idea where I can get it?
