Anyone know what pissed Jens off enough to leave?


Yeah.  We dont know who owns our personal data here on Amiga.org because we still haven't been told who owns it, despite people really wanting to know.

This security vulnerability led Jens to leave.
I don't blame him.  After all, he is a businessman, and a big figure in the Amiga hardware scene.  He didn't want his details compromised, and so, left.

We're told it's DiscreetFX Partners who own the site.

But I think there's more to it than that.  Otherwise they simply could have told us.

Have you heard the Roundtable Podcast?

What a farce.

Can't seem to find it anywhere... perhaps someone else can locate it.

The first half hour want recorded anyway...  But it was brilliant listening to it live!!

Jens was probably drunk when he made his last post, and he'll probably be back again sometime.


That's also a strong possibility  :)

But seriously, think about it.

Whoever owns this site has all our details we gave at registration, plus access to our private mail.

I would be paranoid if I was a businessman within the Amiga community, and then the site I use to communicate to others with is bought over by some unknown entity.  It could be a competitor, or whoever.  The point remains the same - I don't blame him for leaving.

I think EVENTUALLY someone will be able to reverse engineer the AGA chipset.


I thought it could already be done, but no one want to do it because it`s a more complex system without many benefits apart from graphics.
