Why those "two parties" can't simply understand that they could COLLABORATE? Really, why not?
I see this question or something quite similar posted over and over. You need to understand the timeline. Initially this was about Cloanto and Hyperion, true.
The moment the Amiga parties entered the fray that changed.
The recent cease & desist notices come from the 3 Amiga parties, not from Cloanto.

Cloanto simply got those parties involved to gain leverage, as they did not have enough rights on their own to challenge the copyright claims.
I am pretty sure it is just a mere coincidence that Cloanto and all other parties involved have agreed the same representation on the same court case despite they are sued for different things.
And is funny how Amino all of a sudden got up from the grave.
This is not a sweet and innocent game.
No angels and no evils, just players.
My only point here is that this has progressed beyond Cloanto and Hyperion talking, for the sake of those who did not follow how this expanded to encompass more parties.
Anyway, the only active lawsuit is once again titled "Hyperion Entertainment C.V.B.A. et al v. Itec, LLC et al", so I don't see how those Amiga parties could do anything but respond. Did they not get involved "because" Hyperion filed the lawsuit?
