Evert Carton leaves Hyperion

Looking at the original press release, one could conclude that is the one item they intended to keep working on.

"Amiga Inc., who is also actively seeking investment capital to fund the ongoing development of their enabling technologies"

If that's the case, then at the time they surely thought they had more to sell than that, imo.

btw, I would be shocked if you could contact Pluritas and just get your answer as to what is offered.
More likely you would be asked to supply a lot of information first.

It seems amiga inc hasn't been averse to some debt dodging in the past, so who knows.

Of course, there may also be a disconnect between what they think they own, and what they actually do own. As long as nobody challenges them on it, (and who would?) all is peachy for them.

You said a mouthful. Hence the war I mentioned. Not all parties who were a part of Amiga Inc. will see things the same way. You can bank on that.

Debts? I don't get involved in that, save where it concerns all the unpaid developers, who have been raped repeatedly by this bunch. Developers are often a mild mannered group of people in general and avoid the public fora to state how they have been treated over the years.
Although I've received hints at times to stop defending them, I see no valid reason why I should...
I'm not just talking about Bolton here. There is quite an extensive list.
I'm not content to accept the constant argument that what was done was legal and therefore there is no moral obligation in place that holds any water vs that.
And yeah, I've heard the argument about them knowing what they were getting themselves into as well. Irrelevant.

I completely agree with you.

Far better then most people. And once a company's assets are liqidated and all debts are discharged they cease  to exist.
Therefore, if is not possible for a former official to sign a valid contract transferring intellectual property two years after bankruptcy.
Such an act would constitute fraud.

In amiga circles, I believe "fraud" is usually phrased as "marketing strategy"

Well, they always build interceptors and multi-use craft to counter threats that no other power besides China could field :lol:

Stealth?  OK, fine - works great for knocking out anti-aircraft installations...but then again, so does a cruise missile.  As for the US Navy, all they need for a battle group interceptor is a plane that can load up as many pershing missiles as possible.

er..sorry bout that.  /ramble off.

as it turns out stealth isnt a huge difference when the opposition is a bunch of goat herders
