As far as MorphOS not using Amiga Code, well, that's kinda rediculous.
It's plain to see that Amiga code was used.
--

How exactly is it plain to see? Do you have proof?
You know very well that the AmigaOS API is
EXTREMELY well documented. Documented enough
to be replicated. Furthermore AROS code was used
as well. Even OS 3.9 used some AROS code.

They can say that they didn't use it if they wish, but I know better than that.
--

Then proove it. You can be sued for spreading such
stuff and not prooving it. Genesi is innocent until the
court decides the opposite.


Genesi, or whomever, might have written a lot of things, but I can tell you now that Amiga OS code is in there.
--

Go on. Proove it.

I'm actually hoping for a countersuit, since ole' Mr. Buck has pushed it all this far.
--

There won't be one if Genesi wins... There won't be
one even if they lose.... Amiga Inc has no money for
any such stuff... *I* can proove that but won't do it
here, I can't say most stuff I know.

BTW, the OS3.5 registration paper mentions UAE
and they don't ban usage of the OS with any emuls
in the EULA. MOS0.4 was just quark+exec+cgx
and some other modules needed to make the OS run
on a PPC processor + a 68k emulator. The rest was
emulated and patched sometimes. The original ROM
was used for that, NO rom files. It's the same case
Apple lost with the AMax authors.

Actually you said more about the case than I did:P
I just mentioned that they lost a case, nothing more.

AFAIK, Amiga Inc can very well not port their software but they HAVE to answer within a time
period. They exceeded that period ignoring them.
That's a breach of the contract, as this is written
in it.
That's what I understood.
