What about SNAP ?

In the early developments of OS4, an agreement with SciTech was announced: SNAP would be part of the upcoming (yeah!) AmigaOS4 and would allow a great number of boards to work on OS4.

It seems to me that SNAP is not present in OS4 as only ATI boards seem to be supported for now, but I could be wrong, so let's directly ask you:

Is SNAP present in OS4 ? If not, is it scheduled for OS4 final release ? If not, is it scheduled for OS4.1 or above ?

Oh, btw, just to refresh your memory, here are some quotes from an interview you gave back in October 2003:

---------------------
ajk -- Any new drivers on the way? Most importantly graphics cards

Hans-JoergF -- Graphics will be done with snap on A1. On the CSPPC, we're using "normal" P96. Other than that, we're working full force on drivers for A1.

nostalgic -- now i can buy the aone but i dont know what gfx card i shoud bay to it becurse i dont now what os 4.0 gonna suport ?

Hans-JoergF -- www.scitechsoft.com. Look for snap.
----------------------

Not that I have anything with you changing your mind during development, I'm just asking...

Leo.

For 4.0: there were several problems in making the port of SNAP. Thus it was delayed. So I don't know if it will be in 4.0.

It will be in 4.1 for sure.

If you dig further, you'll see that there's talk about SNAP being integrated only in the final version of OS4... that is, not in the prerelease.

@EntilZha: when I say "OS4" I of course mean OS4 "final" release, not prerelease...
