[Coco] nitros9 level3

[Stephen H. Fischer]

Hi,

Some of the changes may break existing things, just like NitrOS-9 broke 
things that were working on OS-9.

And there is the case that not everyone is changing anything when changes 
are made to the current NitrOS9 project.

It would be an opportunity to get more people in sync. Tandy would have 
released a new version but it was killed. That would have put everyone in 
sync. We need to act like Tandy.

If I get some responses then a better case may be able to be made.

That to me says if successful it would be a good point. What else does 
"level 3" mean?

And there is the old standing question of MonkoWare.

You cannot just keep updating 1.0 without ever saying, this is a new 
NitrOS-9 system.

Every other program keeps putting out named revisions, when would be a 
better time for 1.0.0.0.1?

The question should at least be asked, what should the next version look 
like and contain.

Remember, evolve or die or something like that.
