Its not true.........

Notice the full stops, this stops HERE...

Amiga Inc have publicaly announced they are keeping a very close eye on some people. That is, i believe that to be MorphOS. I have no idea, nor do i care if they have stolen Amiga Inc IP. They corts will handle it.

But as far as this thread goes, AROS have not stolen anything. Unless of course they have been sharing code with MorphOS (which they ahve) and that code is Amiga IP.. hehe :)

Guys, dont worry about it. They courts will handle it.

Odin, you could not be more incorrect.

Anyway, AFAIK AROS is all based on reverse-engineered code.


Wrong, they've written it from scratch. If it was reverse engineered code, dont you think they would be a little bit further down the track. They only just got a Workbench clone done.

No offence AROS team, its great stuff, i love it :)

And that's allowed AFAIK


Wrong again. How could this ever be allowed? Reverse engineering requires decompiling. This is very illegal, because it gives a print out of what code went into producing the binary to get an exact copy. This is Very Illegal.

AFAIK
