Maybe you should read the GPL and it's explainations before you
use the term "illegal" .....

The issue is so much in the "grey" that anyone shouldn't start acussing anybody about it.

I A.org the right place to pst criticism on Amiga(related) products ?

If not here, where else ?

And it's not unusal for Hyperion to blame any probs with their games on the user, or the user's setup.

Right, or wrong, I can't tell (cos I never used any of those ports), but there clearly is a pattern.
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

How could I do that when I never had a copy of your magacine in my hands.

And it's not about side-stepping, but just pointing out that you should really think
twice of acussing anybody without checking the facts when you want to keep
up an impartial reputation ....

What Navie wrote wasn't nice, but lets be honest your 1st post in these thread was just
unwise invitation to what followed.

As an independent journalist, you should be the last one to act as white knight, and surely
the very last to try to accuse the original poster of having an agenda just to defend the
"other side".
