It would be nice if we could have just the interfaces info for the new
software so that current software being written could have some of the
new features of Riscos 2 built in from the start NOW rather than later.
This would mean easier upgrades to software.

Otherwise, Acorn are going to bring out a new OS with lots of good new
features that very few programs use.
