It must be a misprint. Bill has said that WShell 2.0 will not ship until
AmigaOS 2.0 goes to ROM. WShell 2.0 will still be compatible with
AmigaOS 1.3, but will lack some 2.0-only features. No, I don't know what
features, I'm not even sure what wonderful enhancements WShell 2.0 will
bring, that's all Bill has said (on BIX). He also said that WShell 2.0
is waiting for AmigaOS 2.0 to go to ROM because it is coupled so tightly
to the OS.

Personally I can't wait to see what WShell 2.0 will look like!
