An interesting point of view.
Just out of boredom...
Cloanto has no copyright, just rights for distribution, someone else have that rights correct ? If Cloanto had made a deal with any of still functioning "claimers" of Amiga Kickstart IPs, it might be only limited by a general patent/copyright expiraton. Anything beyond that is a bluff being possible because community is still trapped in 1994, with no clue what to expect from such a mess ? Seriuosly, I doubt, it's like beating a dead horse anyway, getting kickstarts in binary is no-sweat compared to making slaves for WHDLoad.
