The others,i called them.It was the only way  or emailed if phone number unknown.
All i can tell you is that they are still alive and were supposed to meet to talk about amiga's future in last november but mc ewen as usual had a family emergency.
I have nothing against bill nor anything for,but from emegencies to emergencies time is passing by....
For example Dave haynie was working like Dave needle on military robots,Mical like he's saying with faces on his own website is working at Sony on ps3's low level graphics layers,Dale luck was (last year) still at barracuda network,Bill herd c128 designer is owner of jersey.net (http://ww2.jersey.net/aboutus.asp) an isp,Ron nicholson is at agate logic fpga manufacturer ron (http://www.nicholson.com/rhn/photo-cv.html)
,many people like Jeff porter are at Scala inc.......

much better than that you can invite them to write what they have done after Amiga. I know for sure RJ Mical did quite a lot of intersting stuff and has worked even on the Playstation3. Someone is working at Microsoft, and someone like Sassenrath has created a internet platform/interpreted language.

For me the best engineers have done much even beyond the Amiga...

Also check out for V.Andrade and other guys at Commodore not Amiga related (Yannes for example)

I... oh, sorry I have to say this.  Please do something about the design on your webpage.  It's too much "going on" there.  Wish I could say exactly what you should do, but I can't.  I'm no web designer myself either.

No offense or anything, mate.  Just a friendly tip. :-)

And, hey, maybe throw in an English translation at the same time? :-)  The only Italian I know is.. uh... Fiat Uno.

I don't see why those people couldn't just get together without McEwen.

Yea, the website needs some work to it by far.  I use Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 and that makes good looking pages, and yes, you can make it amiga compatible still if you watch what your doing.  :-)
