No wait, how do we know that Dammy isn't actually Barry himself?? After all you never see them in the same picture together! froth froth foam
I got it Dammy is Bill McEwen and Barry is BBRV. It's been a game to them since they pretended to be at odds over the Amiga name.
This must be the case because Dammy mentions speaking to BBRV and Barry mentions speaking to Bill McEwen.
