Personal Paint 7.1 for AmigaOS 4.0

[Damion]

What I found kinda interesting was this part:

As Cloanto considers a new version of the product for AmigaOS
4.0, it has decided to show its commitment to the Amiga
platform and community by making the source code of the current
version available to Amiga Inc., allowing them to create a
PowerPC native version for the upcoming AmigaOS 4.0 product.

Are Fleecy and HMetal going to do the porting??
(I'm seriously asking BTW). If not, who will they
hire to get the job done? Hyperion maybe?

@HMetal

Having been a software developer for more than 14 years now (mostly C/C++), and having seen projects through from concept to release, sure I could do it, but I doubt I'll be working on this port. I've got enough work on my plate.

I doubt Fleecy will port any of it either. I'm not sure of his experience in actual coding, though I know he has done a bit of VP (AmigaDE/Anywhere) coding.

There are other personnel working for Amiga, Inc in various capacities. No, I am not at liberty to discuss who and how.

As for Hyperion, it's possible and they could do it but I haven't heard anything to support that notion. Don't you think Hyperion's guys are busy enough with AmigaOS 4.0?:-)

Well good luck and congrats on getting the deal
arranged. PPaint was one of the only apps I still
used on my old 1200.
