Adpro update patch?

Art Department Professional 2.5.1 is legally available from the TOSEC Amiga Collection hosted on archive.org.

Why would you assume that site holds "legal" distributions?

There was a version distributed as a cover disk in Europe. Other than that no version has ever been "legally" downloadable as far as I can recall.

Hey, I sold that company - do what you want. Just don't call it legal when likely it is not.

For those here who have a problem with me expressing this personal opinion... kiss my ass.

Yes

A perfect chance to ask the author if he would be interested to allow
ADPro to be included in something like Aros68k or maybe give source
codes (from the kindness of his heart) in case there was someone
interested in them.

There it was , I saw it !

Nothing would give me greater pleasure.

But the code belongs to a publicly traded company who almost certainly doesn't know they own it and even more almost certainly would consider the lawyer time it would take to make a decision and write a release, too much investment for something they care so little about.

Follow up to this:

I asked Avid if they would agree to open source ADPro.

They agreed with enthusiasm (pending an IP review).

No one could find the code. Not myself. Not any former employee I was able to reach. Not Avid.

The summary: We tried to do a good deed. It didn't work out. We're sorry.
