Ownership of amiga.org?
« on: June 10, 2014, 12:41:30 PM »
If you look at the bottom of this site you read this:

Amiga.org and logo Copyright © 2014, A-EON Technology Ltd

What does that mean? A-eon is owner of the site? And if yes what does that mean for the users. Amiga.org was (up to now) 68k orientated and open to discussions (even controversial ones that were stopped on other site(s) )

And:

I noticed Amigakit and Trevordick were coloured red today. Trevordick is now also named administrator and webmaster. I'm guessing he took over the site. I haven't been here much lately so someone else or everyone might already know. If he has taken it over i think that would be excellent news for the site. Fingers crossed.

Why "excellent news"? I am more for neutral ownership regarding forum. We all know what both a-eon and Amigakit are mostly interested in.

I am just assuming it would be good as he comes across as a decent bloke who has genuine passion for Amiga's. I also think he is neutral as he afaik uses aros and mos and not just AOS4.x.


we will see... it will hopefully stay vastly as it is

At least I would expect some informations or news about such a drastic change

Agree, I see no reason why ownership of the site and keeping it alive is a problem because of Trevor's other interests.  I don't think he is looking to make money out of it otherwise he wouldn't be dabbling in Amiga.

But I guess the socialists here will see it as an affront to free society and free speech. Perhaps a few hackers in the mix will now have a target for their ideals....


Time will tell what will change... in worst case people change to another forum

What has "free speech" to do with "socialist? We here call it democracy and free media.
