But Hyperion haven't replied to his emails.

Ben is probably a little pissed off right now. He spent all that time and money on OS4 and licensing names like "AmigaOne" when all he really had to do was license the name "Amiga" and slap it on some pre-manufactured products.

Heh, either way...
But I have a serious question for you.

When one makes a statement it is very difficult to determine whom it will affect and in what way.
There is an issue troubling me lately, and I've posted about it elsewhere.

Link?

Thank you jorkany.
That's probably the best way to start.
If you ignore the "hah hah" comments in the thread and just focus on the serious questions being asked, I'm sure you'll understand where I'm going with this.

If you're talking about the "executor of the estate" thing, I wondered about that myself. Who is the executor of Kouri's estate, do we know? I can't think of anyone else who that might refer to.

Anyway, I was kind of hoping you were referring to a post that appeared on moobunny this morning.

number6,

Well, maybe Mr. Kleperis got wind of the licensing through a contact at ITEC originally, and was directed from there. So maybe from his point of view it was okay to post the news item that was removed about it at the time, not knowing how everything having to do with Amiga today is required to involve a certain level of cloak-and-dagger. Then someone clarified that he really should refer to AInc. as the license provider and leave ITEC out of it.

Just saying, it could be fairly innocuous.

Is AInc. still a subsidiary of ITEC?

hmm...not the reaction I was expecting:

Oh well...

Guess I missed that! So AInc. settled with Cloanto? I wasn't even aware that they had filed against Cloanto, actually. What exactly is Serial No. 78/907083 anyway?

Wow!  That descended into chaos quickly, didn't it?

Back onto topic - I've been trying to get Todd talking with Rogue.  I emailed Rogue, who told me that to his knowledge Todd hadn't tried to contact Hyperion.

So I gave Rogue's email to Todd, who told me that Rogue never got back to him.  That seems strange - he replied to me within seconds.

And in response to the quwery - no, I'm not CEO of anything.  Like I said, I started by having a go at iContain, but Todd has convinced me that he deserves to be given a chance.  Not sure why he didn't get a reply from Rogue.

I've just got visions of an Amiga phone in my head.  I'm starting to find my Nokia N97 Mini annoying ...

I have to call BS on this one. At various times over the years I've emailed Hyperion, including both Friedens and also Ben Hermans, from disposable email addresses as well as my legitimate email, with perfectly legitimate and courteous questions. I've never once ever gotten any kind of response.
