Once network is possible any solution can be thought of.. RISC OS has never been designed with multiuser in mind so there just might be some nice quirk available through !graphtask.. If anyone has the sources of that app we might even be able to realize such an option. The easiest way would be to have 'extra' vram which is simply put shared memory between the host and the RISC OS environment.. If we can work-out some simple scheme for shared-memory through a RISC OS module and some tweaks in RPCemu then that is a great way to 'expand' our possibilities.. We might even think about a virtual viewfinder...
