That is pretty neat. I guess this sort of unlocking and unblocking effort is exactly what’s needed for a revival.

I’m sort of thinking of AmigaOS/Workbench as well although, perhaps because of what I would assume was always a much larger user base than SGI had, it maybe never went away like SGI and IRIX did.

It is great seeing these old platforms get a new lease of life.

Ooh that's super interesting. I assume you shared the recipe with the irix community? I remember keeping Netscape up to date on my Indy was already a struggle in 2002.
