Thats somewhat of a long story . Basically the apps people rather get pay to do apps however since there are no so many kernel positions and it is fun, hackers tend to hack on kernel and related subsystems, linkers, compilers , etc.. everything but apps. Conclusion: By cultural choice the availability of applications on Unix is a joke . Last but not least , your work on emulation is most appreciated!!
