Let the man kow he sez what we want to see.

Don't know if this is going to get out of here but I'll give it a go anyway.

that we really want on the amiga.

How about memory protection (On 020 & 030) for memory that isn't declared as
MEMF_PUBLIC. This would mean an end to trashing other programs code &
libraries, as well as the system& user stack for tasks & processes. I saw
mention somewhere in the past that mem protection wouldn't work because
MEMF_PUBLIC is supposed to be just that public.

I say that it doesn't matter if it is suppoed to be public. Just provide 
protection (ie BERR ) for memory not your own or PUBLIC & we'll be away.
Surely somebody at CATS is able to do this for machines with an MMU.

PS.
Could somebody tell me where the 68881/882 is supposed to be decoded in the
68000/010 address space.
