I've been looking for some kind of authoring system simular to the Director on the Mac/PC, I'm hoping that Scala can provide this.
As far as I'm concerned, I'd like to see a version of Scala/Backbone that was really optimised for PowerAmiga, rather than try to get more out of AGA or even ECS, both wich I feel are out of data and it makes more sense to look towards PowerPC than trying to keep compatable with the older Amigas at the expense of innovation.
Just my 2cents worth,
