Amithlon FAQ update
« on: April 19, 2002, 02:22:24 PM »
Amiga-news.de reported on the change of certain points in the Amithlon FAQ-page to reflect the current situation of Amithlon.


Q: I want to have it!

A: That's not possible right now, unfortunately. I explained the license problems in the statement. However I hope to have a new, improved, and completely licensed version available soon.

Q: And when will that be for sale?

A: Hopefully very soon, after the unhappy stuff is
 cleared up.

Q: Does Amiga Inc. want to publish it?

A: Yeah, they want to. Things have changed. Nobody
is happy about it, least of all me. Amithlon was always meant to be a complete solution, with fully licensed ROMs and AmigaOS. Haage & Partner apparently didn't share this position, but I am personally not ready to compromise in this regard.

amiga-news.de comments that they have tried to reach H&P for their view of the situation, with meager results:

[amiga-news.de:] "Unfortunately it's not possible for H&P to speak because the signed contracts between Bernie Meyer, Harald Frank (VMC) und H&P clearly state these internal matters not be discussed publicly.
- And Bill McEwen can't or won't speak either. "
