You might also be supprised that I am co-admin for os9tools and am a
registered developer for os9source!

Also Tim S. is porting OS9Tools to windows.

Also have you seen the osnine project on sourceforge?

http://sourceforge.net/projects/osnine

This project is uses a 6809 emulation core to _run_ 6809 OS-9 modules on
the host operating system. I recently compiled it for Mac OS X and was
able to use OS-9 disasm to disassemble some OS-9 floppy disk drivers.

All without booting up my CoCo!
