Lou, that entire line of thinking doesnt help you point. Before they signed a contract with Amiga, they wrote (your theory) a contract to pay Olaf for his super 3.1 code. Again, complaining about having to buy something that you knew you had to buy before you signed the Nov 3, 2001 contract is pretty disengenuous, dont you think? Thats true whether Olaf signed the contract before Nov 3, 2001 (as I believe and as the date sayes) or after Nov 3, 2001 (as you believe).

But if there is no date next to the signature, then how would you determine the starting date of the contract, especially when the only date on the contract is the draft date ?

Just wondering because of this;

As for the "Oct" date on Olaf's contract... Isn't it obvious that "discussions" are made before contracts are signed. I could work out a contract with you and date it today and we may not be able to sign it for 10 years because certain external conditions have not been met. 10 years later those conditions are met, as long as nothing else has changed, that 10-year old contract can then be signed by both of us and effective immediately. It's stupid to think that just because it was drafted on a certain date that it goes into effect on the draft date and not the signing date.


That makes it sound "Olaf's contract" doesn't have a signed date..
