Personally i can't say that I blame the fellas. Its a shame but its not the end of the world.
I know for a fact that a few people are keeping them up-to-date if anything important is said. (re them or the amiga community in general)
So fear not, they have just got fed up with the bickering.
Its annoying cause its human nature to say something when they are unhappy but do people ever write and say "thanks guys, great job" etc. no. well - not very often so its VERY easy for people to get a negative view on things. its just a sad fact that people dont convey their Good feelings aas often as they do their Bad ones. ;/
anyway. ramble over.
TTFN
