Wouldn't bet on it....

You may remember H&P searching for someone to adapt AE to OS4 on a freelance-basis.
Or in other words : " We'll pay you 0.0 upfront, but you might get a few ct when it works out"

Seems they have found someone .... I'm still not sure wether the new AE is
-just a patch to make sure the OS3.x-version runs on OS4.
- a plain port from OS3.x to OS4
- AE_V5 in the makeing

With competion is again something where they don't invest a dime, but may end up with an Icon/Skin-CD they can sell ....

Same old H&P as allways  :-o
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

@rOGUE  :-P

Just read the orginal call by H&P and you will see that they just said that (with more words offcourse).

Add to that their past handlings with other peoples IP (Miami in OS3.5, Genesis in 3.9, Amithlon ....), and you just can't avoid aggreeing with my shortened version :-(

@cecilia

I think it is safe to assume that Toaks doesn't have a Peg. Don't ask my why, but somehow I'm 100% sure bout that  :-P

@Hammer
"fair use" refers to stuff you got in a legal way, and than use it different to what the EULA may state.

There is no legal way of getting these icons other than buying a Peg.
