I am sure you would not pirate it but someone else would so it just wont work.


Who? I think you're over-estimating the popularity of MorphOS.

It's probably a thing of word and trust - don't misuse it.
But why would the MorphOS team have more trust in people who claim their hardware is broken than those who claim they want to move the license to different hardware? They've already made it clear that they don't trust their users, so if I buy a license for one of my minis, and later find some PB that I want to use the license on instead while keeping my mini, I'd use all kinds of tricks to fool the MorphOS team to believe my mini is broken. Lucky for them, I  've lost interest, all this nonsense requires way more energy than it's worth.

I'll make sure to forward your message on to the MorphOS Developer Team kolla, so they will be ready to provide the appropriate response to your "your all kinds of tricks".

Hardly any need is there, they're following this thread already. Are you saying it would be against a law, or the license, or whatever, to lie and trick the MorphOS Team to believe that a machine I own and that used to have MorphOS on it, is broken?

My point is just that the current licensing scheme encourages dishonousty, telling them "I've decided to use my mini for NetBSD and will rather use MorphOS on this Powerbook" gets you nowhere, while "My mini just died, tell me what evidence I need to fabricate, so I can transfer my license to this Powerbook" could easily work.

Provide your information about getting the internal Airport Extreme card working to the MorphOS Development Team, i am sure they will be interested in it, but it may take more than you think to access the internal Airport Extreme card from MorphOS3.0, I mean having a driver is not the only obstacle to getting wireless networking enabled using the internal Airport Extreme card, unless I am understanding the current situation incorrectly.  It would be great if a solution could be found to enable use of the Airport Extreme in the G4 PowerBook from MorphOS3.0, so please share what ever you know and have used from Debian to get it working with the MorphOS Dev. Team and I will hope for the best.

I'm quite certain that MorphOS team members like Piru and others are fully aware of how to get wpa_supplicant working with different kinds of WPA/WPA variants (CCMP/TKIP, PSK/802.1X, EAP ...) on Linux.
