Hi
What does a LimeWire port to SkyOS cost? Or how many packets would you sell? SkyOS need a p2p application. You can be the first! Unfortunately, you should work with Mono.

LimeWire on SkyOS costs $18.88, and you'll get a PRO version with that payment.

So long as SkyOS supports Java 1.4, you're good to go.

yes a skyos port would be nice i would defenently pay for that

You can pay for it by buying PRO and downloading LimeWire. It will run on whatever operating system you like.

I have payed last time.
It doesn't work because Sun didn't support SkyOS yet! But is it a big thing to port it to Mono? I'm sure a few ppe would pay for this great application

There was recently an interesting post by someone on LimeWire's core developer list who estimated that more than 20 person-years have gone into LimeWire development. You can shrink it to 4-5 years of real work. A good port would take about the half of the time... Now take 4 full-time developers (the average number at LimeWire) multiply it with an average salary of a developer and you'll get a quite large number.

You need more than a few ppl. who would buy it. It is maybe cheaper to buy a JVM license from Sun, do some adjustments and compile it for SkyOS.

4 Person years??? lol.
Would you start a OS?

oh and as i know Mono use a Java
LIB or?! I'm pretty sure that a port isn't the big work!

have you tried to emulate jre with cedega????????
maybe that would work.
