New Executive Update

[Herewegoagain]

They changed their mind in 2001 (good), but still haven't added one single
line of code to the project or payed for any actual development.

Honestly Kronos, do you have some sort of vested interest in overseeing that Amiga has to spend X amount of dollars?   And how do you know so much of what goes on internally at Amiga concerning their finances?  Do you loose sleep over this at night?

Personally,  I could care less what they have spent or how many lines of code they have actually produced in-house... that means squat to me!  The only thing that matters to me is that things are happening.

If they had said that they money would be passed over to Hyperion/
Eyetech to help them in getting things finished faster it would have made some
sense, but in the way it sounds to me now it's just another desperate
"we need money now" -cry just like the Party-Pack last year.

Well, I understand what you are saying in that respect, but I find it hard to believe that the money will not somehow go to or at least toward those companies.  If nothing else, it could be deducted from any sort of fees/royalties they would have to pay Amiga, but that is just speculation even on my part.  I'm sure they have worked out the details amongst themselves.
