Better to simply start over with the name and trademark thing. Call it 'Friend', get a marketing firm to dream up logos and all of the trademarkable crap, legally start a company that includes all of this newly dreamed up stuff, and then do whatever you want... Aros is probably a more sensible direction being that it is open sourced so put it on whatever hardware platform it supports and one you fancy the most. And there it is, a non-poisoned computer entity off to a fresh start. And not in any way tied to filthy garbage. There would be plenty of money left over to heavily fund some Aros bounties too. My suggestion...even though I tend to drift in the 68K and MorphOS worlds.

Revive Amithlon.

I like it. Use a modern 2.6.whatever Linux kernel (some kind of mainstream kernel with zillions of drivers so it runs on most anything) and build the Amiga end of it using 3.1 instead of 3.9. Plus throw in that 64bit 68K JIT compiler we need, and whatever other cool Umilator features that may exist. If the rats cry about use of 3.1, then use some of the cash to acquire resources needed to get Aros68K 100% compatible with 3.1.

Additionally, after starting the 'friend' computer company blah, blah...and reviving Amithlon, funding some Aros bouties...Cash needs to also fund some MorphOS work.
