Hi,

There are several issues that prevented us from delivering a CDTV release of 3.1.4:

-The toolchain to build the extended part of the CDTV rom from sources is nowhere to be found. Remember Commodore only officially supported 1.3 roms on the CDTV.

-Whilst we could have done some research work, we did not have a sufficient pool of testers with CDTVs to guarantee proper testing.

-Not only that, but overall manpower was low enough to shift priorities elsewhere.

The good news is that despite this, now we have dedicated developer that is keen on supporting the CDTV on a future version of AmigaOS.
