Please sign to show your support for Bernie; author of Amithlon; while he sorts out the problems with its release.

He has gone through such hard times trying to get his excellent software out, and it would be nice to show him how much support he has from the Amiga Community!

So please sign today and feel free to leave any comments you would like to give Bernie.

Weird, huh. Same thing with the MoL screen shots...
Seems that if you start something in the Forums that other consider news worthy it get passed around the internet til it lands back here.

Okay, confusing...
The statement the petition links to in the one in March about his dispute/problems with H&P. I thought this was about Version 2. What's the problem with version 2? I thought that would be taken care of by now, as it was labled a small problem.

@Argo

The problem with 2.0 is that 1.0 was more than Bernie-IP + AInc.-IP.
It also included pieces done by P96,H&P,Harald Frank and others.

Atleast one of them feels betrayed by the 2.0 agreement between
Bernie and AInc.
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

None of us know for sure, but I think it's a fair bet that the problems are the result of H&P and Harald Frank trying to prevent Amithlon 2.0's release. It would appear that one of the contributors of licensed software has got cold feet and decided to withold their license, at least temporarily.

I stress I'm only guessing from what has been posted at the Amithlon demo page. I certainly have no more information on the problem than anyone else has.
