You'd better feed him, stat!

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 !

personality when it comes to diet If she keeps up she will fall under
"big cats" family soon , it's already size of a hungry mountain lioness :roflmao:

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.

Big thank you for clarifying current status of program

You could have just said "see Newtek response re:Lightwave". heh.

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.

Any opinion on distributing the binaries. Example:multipic replacement for the iff loader as illustrated in one of my earlier links.

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

whats there to tell except agree with you on legality issue:)

thanks for your effort and sorry that the sources are lost. it might have been interesting to preserve them as reference. would it be possible to release binaries legally? maybe olaf schoenweiss would line to include them in his aros68k distribution (aros vision), as he did with a number of good amiga software upon allowance of the ip holders.
