I see from this message that Mr. McEwan is misreading bbrv's statements. Mr. Buck expressed confidence in the case, not saying "we've won." It's an example of reading into statements what you either want, or fear.

Beg to disagree sir.
See for yourself, on this comment: http://www.ann.lu/comments2.cgi?view=1061267806&category=forum&start=251#me

P.S. To avoid any further confusion, the legal process has been settled in our favor.

Can we move on now?"

Dave, we have someone working on the port now. They have DE and they have a Pegasos. We will shortly have all the sources and all the documentation associated with DE to further our efforts.

Our use of the tradmarks is valid. As for Intent, we would be very happy to be working with Francis Charig and Tao, but that is a completely different matter.

Best regards,
R&B

It appears that Bill McEwen's comments do indeed appear to have some legitamacy.

I don't see the conflict here, actually. You're taking 2+2 and getting 14.5 here.

Read those statements much closer, the exact terms used. "sounds like" and "is actually stated" are many times two different things, to remind you

Sorry, but to me those quotes mentioned above seem to be quite damning. I fail to see how they can be interpreted any other way.

However, it's your view point, I don't agree with it, but there you go, I guess people will have to make their mind up.

Alternatively, you could provide evidence from that ANN thread to back up your claim.

Grief, get back from a night's sleep and I find strong measures taken against Ray Akey.

It's looks to me as if it's still very much Wayne's Website, With Kees as a "front man".

Sad, I actually had high hopes for this site under Kees guidance.
Looks like my hopes were unfounded.  

Back to AmigaWorld for me I guess.

B-Bye, don't let the door hit you in the ass. You only come to make false acusations and smear BS against this site anyhow.

Very cute, you really are one funny guy.

You know, it's understandable when another user makes those types of comments, but when a moderator makes it, the site is brought down.

But then again we all know that you prefer the blue side of the fence, so I guess it's hardly surprising you attacking me, given my stance.

Please Keep alienating Pro Amiga people, why don't you? IMHO, your comment continues to undermine the "neutrality" claims of this site.

Wonder who's bright idea it was to make you moderator?

Hmm Wonder if my comment here will be romoved as well?

We think that his password was simply guessed ...

Kees I have a lot of respect for you,

However in this case I fear you have been misled. having just chatted with  Ray Akey, he assures me that his Amiga.org password was a mixture of lower and uppercase and that it wasn't a dictionary word.

So I fear that if he is telling the truth and I have no reason to disbelieve him, someone accessed his password, posted under his name and got him banned.

Which really scares the bejesus out of me, because now I'm not sure how safe my account is on here. :-(

When I met you last year at WOASE you were only too happy to talk to me. Supporting Amiga inc, etc, Now I find you making personal and unwarrented attacks on me.

for the record, I publicly object to your personal attack calling me dishonest and a liar etc.

You sir have sunk to a new low, I could reply in Kind, but out of respect for Kees I will abstain.

I don't believe for a minute that the site was hacked and the password accessed. Please carry through with your threat to leave.

Gee you signed up to Amiga.org under an alias (make your first post in this alias) Just to troll me?

Thanks I didn't think I was worth all that effort

Think I'll stay now and ruin your day.

I talk to anyone, but that doesn't stop me calling a spade a spade when I see one.

Indeed even if by doing so you come across as a pathological hypocrite?

As to your other points, I have decided that my post count on here is too low, so I guess i'll stay and see it rise a bit more.

BTW, Would you be so kind as to produce some of my "Blatantly false accusations" that I make at Amigaworld.net?

A few links perhaps?

Amiga.org? this site is the most biased 100% pro Genesi  site ever to grace the Amiga scene, with sites like that it shows what sort of measures some wacky people will go to protect/praise a company to the death.

So if your going to be staying on this site then do it but don`t make yourself sound even worse by going to a worse site unless of course you get a stiffy for Genesi, which you clearly do so this place will suit you and the rest of the zombies.

No you are right it isn't worth it.

I would have been fine, had it not been for the fact that first of all Ray Akey gets banned for something Trivial. Bill Buck posts here with impunity, despite his "morons" comment

Then I get all the personal attacks against me. I came here to partake in discussion. However, it has now turned into a personal attack against me.

You watch, second, I over step the line against someone, I'll get banned. Yet when I'm being victimised, it's open season.
