Hans-Joerg and Thomas Frieden have decided to unsubscribe from all amiga-related public mailing lists, newsgroups and web forums, and they have deleted all their Amiga bookmarks.


The complete mail sent to the AmigaOne list:


Hi!

I've already tried to send this mail, but it bounced, so I am reposting this.

Recent events have given me the impression that it has become impossible in the Amiga community to speak up in self-defence without
someone taking offence in it. Thomas and me have therefore decided (in in fact already did so) to unsubscribe from all amiga-related public
mailing lists, newsgroups and web forums, and we have deleted all our Amiga bookmarks.

Work on our projects will not be affected by this. OS 4 will still be developed in the same way it used to be. We're just pulling out of the
public.

I'm sorry we have to take such drastic measures, but it simply doesn't work otherwise anymore. You can still contact us personally, we're open for discussion, but no longer in public. Fact is that everything we say will end up on some web page or forum, being dissected to death and commented with all sort of nice wording, so the best solution is obviously to say nothing at all.

Thanks for reading this.

Best regards,

Really sad that it has come this far. I am 100% behind there decision. Well, all those people with negative comments/words will have to respond once OS4 is ready. Because then it is time to take back those words they said. They really piss me of. Sorry for the bad language but I just want to express my feelings.

Nobody messes with the heroes of OS4!!!!

You have a point there JetRacer. But also it shows they really care about it. And that is something that I admire. Care for what they do.

Offcourse it was not just a few postings with negative thoughts. Seems those people get a kick out of smashing everything down. Maybe they were send by Bill Gates. You never know.

You are right Wayne. And offcourse there is nothing wrong with some critics/negative words, but post it as a registered user.
