It's underway!!  It's coming.  It's a very large project, and I want to make sure the initial drop goes off without a hitch.  You're going to like what this project has to offer.  Please be patient - it's a very large undertaking, WRT to packaging and the initial software ports.

Nekoware2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Is NW2 gonna have a kitty mascot?

Yeah, the concept I have is:

Nekomimi schoolgirl with brown hair and a seifuku, too long of sleeves for her hands, and a red cap that says 

"Make IRIX Great Again"

I want to get some hats made possibly...

(to be clear, this is not a final design, nor is it a political statement. We will negotiate this with the userbase when the time comes is my view)

Can I recommend another color for hat, like some of the system colors (blue or purple) just to keep on the SGI theme?

[Raion]

I suppose. We will have time to discuss that mascot.

[Lady Serena Kitty]

Neko-chan with black-billed purple hat saying "Make IRIX\nGreat Againya!" embroidered on it, pawssibly wearing a black magicalgirl dress with the Infinity Cube silkscreened on it.

Oh, she also has wings, like any Neko-chan magical girl would, except they are cyan, orange, and purple, the colors of the "sgi" text-mode logo. Her right wing being cyan, left wing being purple, and the bottom half of both wings being orange.

Her petti and trim should also be colors that are significant in the world of SGI, same with socks, gloves, earrings, bracelets, and various other adornments she might and/or might not have.

ALSO KITTY EARS WITH KITTY TAIL BECAUSE SHE'S A KITTY!

I can't have the cube on it due to trademark issues, but I was gonna have her in a sailor outfit or a casual outfit. We'll have some designs to choose from when the time comes, but for now, it's all about waiting for the NW2 itself.

FYI I heard from Axatax after calling him this weekend. He's been having some issues with his house due to some pains from his ISP and utility providers. That's why he's not been super communicative, but he's still working on NW2
