Frankly? Because we had apparently zero idea that the other team existed. You REALLY ought to advertise more.


Thank you for your comments.

But advertise all time gets on people nevers.

I don't see a linux RPM. Are there any? Preferably for X11 and not console?


There an simple answer to this question.  Securty, people where sending back spoof reports that had completed an block of data.  Now I am not saying this is not happening now.  It just an lot harder to do.

But if there was RPM then there would be an lot easyer to make an client for Amiga platform.

The group HammerD is in (and me also) was formed at least 2-3 years ago, I think. This was a little before most of the problems emerged at AI. I don't know where the guy who formed the group (aMIGA dUDE) comes down on all that has happend since then, but I think the description predates much of the squabbling.


Correct, I have no problem with changing the group description. But this isn't correct forum for discustion on this group description.  The groups mailing list is http://groups.yahoo.com/subscribe/AmiSetiAtHome

If my memory serves me right the group was formed during days of Escom.

The group needs an good web site but I am rubbish at that sort thing.

If anyone want to talk to me directly, the best way is with Skype.  And my user name is amiga_dude

http://www.skype.com

Now I can only use this at work, so I might not be able to answer always.  Until Telewest installs my broadband connection at home.

Not at all. Why does everything in the Amiga community end up having to choose sides and competing? There's no point in it.


Gosh some very wise words.  I rembered when started the group and that I was attacked when I mentioned about it.  A few of the RC5 effort members got very upset about it.  They got all up set about the fact that I’ll asked people to join my team and help in SETI@home.  I never mentioned not taking part in RC5 effort; I just posted news that you could be a part of Amiga effort for SETI@home.

My view is simple, it your computer and you use it as you like.  It not for me to tell you how to use your own computer.
