As far as I know, the person stating that wasn't the president of the company. He wasn't an attorney for the company.
Sounds like a friendly request to me...
I grew up around lawyers; that wasn't even slightly intimidating.. ;-)
He's one of two known personnel for CUSA (the other being Barry himself) and the general PR guy for the company; moreover, his threat was groundless posturing, as any basic research into the project would have shown (let alone actual knowledge of TheDaddy's project from - get this -
being involved in the community. I haven't even been following this project and I knew he wasn't selling it Amiga-branded,
geez,) and he wasn't the person to be making it in the first place, as CUSA does not own or enforce the Amiga trademarks, they merely license them.
And as has been pointed out several times in both threads, a
real friendly request would have been a private note to TheDaddy, not territorial pissing on a public forum. It might not have been a formal legal threat, but it
was douchey and needlessly aggressive.
