Please let me make a couple of statements here:  

First, I don't think this forum is the right spot to start negotiations. Yes, I do have contact to the authors, and yes, I know the figure they expect. But please understand that I'm not the right partner to negotiate with, as I have no rights on the actual code. I can at best moderate.

However, if you want to take my personal observations: From what I learned from Alex, I would *personally* consider it unlikely that they are willing to provide P96 under LGPL terms, even if you would want to pay for this right. But that is, as said, my observation, and something you should discuss with them.

I believe you have the email address, but - to be completely frank again - their willingness to talk to the Apollo team given what happened before seems not to be "overly enthusiastic", to put it mildly. I would assume that you - your team - should make some first step, probably to make them understand that you accept their rights.

Anyhow, just my two cents. I am neither with them nor any other party, that's just my opinion and my observation.


And we want a clean P96 installation for the Indivision ECS, Mediator 3dfx and Radeon...

Hold on, who is continuously breaching copyright here... They do want to sell. For money. If that's not morally right for you, you're on the wrong planet.

Not everything is for free here, and just because you want it for free does not mean you can get it.

You act like a child who is denied a lollypop... Buy one if you want one. It's really THAT simple.

I already answer at this : they make money back in the days with P96, and again few years ago with the OS4...

So now, it's extra... They can give now, the Classic are near dead...

You take us for stupid guys, and you mock us, the last Amiga fans who fight to Amiga Classic survive...
