The NatAmi team have persuaded that goal with their softcore 050 and plans for a 070. I believe they will succeed with it, seeing the talented people working on it. They are also boosting nice numbers with legacy processors - currently they are running a real 060 stable at speeds of 120mhz.
I have to admire peoples will to do projects like this. Even if they fail or doesn't reach their goals - it is still supporting the Amiga. Which by any regular sense would be a page in the history of computers - much less a platform with life left.
