Has Clone-A died?

Don't seem to hear any news on this anymore?

Last I heard was Jens Schönfeld finished the hardware and was working on gui interface for his hardware and licensing issues for Amiga os.

so spec wise if by some miracle clone-a got released how it specs wise compare to like fpga arcade and Natami MX boards?

so if clone_A was to be released it more or less like Minimig but more precise/compatible. So It wouldn't include AGA like Natami and FPGA Arcade. If this Is so, why didn't Jen release before Minimig. Seems like it might be too late for this.

Bzzzzt...wrong! CloneA isn't just an OCS compatible device, plan was to have cycle exact versions of OCS, ECS and AGA. In other words, it's designed to be perfectly compatible with ALL Amiga software, not just A500 software.

I imagine the reason you think this is because only the OCS chipset implementation has been fully demonstrated so far. However, there's been more information on the CloneA posted by Jens and Oliver on the English Amiga Board which fills in some of the details. Recommend looking through these posts for a more accurate picture of the CloneA project.

Do you have links for these references to these implementations of ecs,aga into clone a?

Noticed Jens still frequents Eab fourms. so started new thread on there. If it gets approved jens may give us all some answers on the situation on clone a.

Jens Has confirmed it is still alive but wont give details incase someone nicks his ideas. I think if its good might leave Natami on proverbial retail shelf and buy Clone-A for real Amiga computer and FPGA arcade for retro amiga.
