Just had a look at the petition. The list of signatures reads like an ann.lu flamefest.
Many of those who've signed are either MorphOS trolls, or people who just don't understand what's going on. For pete's sake guys, it's not Amiga Inc who can make the Pegasos AOS compatible, it's bPlan. :roll:
I was saddened to see several good friends' names in there, though I do wonder if a few names haven't been forged...
OTOH, a goodly number of the currently 219 signees actually did it to protest against the petition itself.
I'm going to ignore it. As far as I'm concerned, the Pegasos has too uncertain a release date to be taken into account, and I have no desire to shift to MorphOS. The name Amiga belongs to Amiga Inc, and they have every right to specify in what way it will be protected, and what form the licensing may take. It's not as though it's particularly convoluted, it doesn't prevent people selling dual-boot systems (as MicroShaft do), and it makes sense to have a mobo that can recognise an AOS-formatted hard disk to boot from.
Storm in a bloody teacup. All these hysterics are beginning to disgust me. No wonder so many people have left the Amiga scene and retain such a poor opinion of those that are left. It's frankly pitiful.
