Here is a clip from their web pages: OS/2 Current status: Progress +2 Latest Update: 05 October We got the Windows sourcecode from version 4.0 (which is not yet released) and one of the developers, was able to compile it without SSL and mailsupport under OS/2 with Odin32-APIs. The executable is not yet working and there are still bugs in Odin32; this is what we must fix now. A third developer has been added to the team and we think that the OS/2 version is not that far away! Of course, we cannot say how long it will take until it is working but progress is better than ever before. Opera/2 is part of Project Magic from Opera Software, who are porting their (10 Mb) web browser from Windows to OS/2, MacOS and other operating systems. For more information about Project Magic, Opera/2 and Opera Software, go to: http://www.opera.com/ Odin32, now under the administration of The OS/2 Netlabs, is a project that aims to convert Win32-apps to native OS/2 code.
