They *were*. Whilst no one has said the project is cancelled, Fleecy has
dropped a number of none too subtle hints that the Classic OS will remain
outside the DE, /with the DE being supported by the Classic OS/ from version
4.2.
So, if I interpret what I have read correctly, the OS will continue as a
standalone product on PPC hardware, whilst the DE will largely be a powerful
skin and JVM for Windows/Linux or whatever :/
