I just donated £15.00 GBP to A-EON Technology Ltd to help git 'er done! :)

Excellent suggestion Karlos and thanks for your help!

Surely the author of the code deserves your donation more? ;)

The proxy was a labour of love and was not written for any reason other than to give a better experience for the minority of users actually using their classic systems to come here. Still it seems fitting that only in Amiga circles does the issue of lost source warrant someone throwing money at someone to do something. We should have a bounty too lol


Why have one when you can now have three in a pack? ;)

I'm posting this right now from Netsurf m68k from Aminet.

Why is the proxy needed again?

And you can have it, as soon as I have recovered the source.

Maybe I could start a bounty to get off my arse and pull the backup from my server?

Starting at one million dollars mwuahahah!

OK. I have the code to Karlos' aoproxy in my possession.

I refuse to free it until you tightwad Amiga users hand over £2000 GBP.

Start looking down the back of your couches boys!

Servers cost money to run Gizmo.

And my time costs money too.

A proxy does not require a server, just throw it up in the cloud :)

It cost money for the last 8 years.

It will also cost me time to do anything with it. Time==Money.

is there a $x amount associated with this work?  Throw one out there and lets see what the community can come up with.  :)

Two grand GBP. Karlos doesn't have the code, I do.

Hard to tell if you are being flip.  I was prepared to pitch in a reasonable sum of a hundred bucks or so.  If that is the case then I guess the proxy is dead.  R.I.P.  :(

Bigger bounties have been collected for less useful code.  It's all in a good cause. I won't keep it for myself.

In the web application world, you now use application containers, storage containers, and some load balancer solution in front of it.

But (using the more traditional approach with a server), why not take inspiration from Amiga, and just tar out data to a ram disk during boot of the VM (or the container or whatever) :)



Not exactly huge data, and doesn't even need to survive reboots. It does sound like something that could be dropped into a paas somewhere, or a simple vhost at some VPS provider, VMware or whatever.

All well and good, but that involves time and time costs money.
