The thread is a little silly to me. Nobody is going to come after anyone legally unless there is some sort of commercial distro even then i doubt it. My favorite thing on these type of amiga threads are the arm chair lawyers legal opinion. lol

i have no idea if it was or not; thankfully i'm not a lawyer. but the emails and PM i got to not allow links to the archive didn't come from hyperion, and i think i'll leave it at that.

I completely understand you protecting aorg from posting links, im in favor of that. But this whole legal threat thing in this community is a sad joke and whats even more sad are the fanboys that echo it.

ps im aware there are copyright holders for 3.1 and they are entitled to their rights im speaking more on the insanity of it all. In particular os4 being held hostage by a holding company in belgium. The BEST thing that could EVER happen to Amiga os would be open source
