Cloanto? ah, that software house, that made a drawing program years ago, copied from another, and now makes a fantastic gui for a free emulator, that Cloanto?

Or the Cloanto that provided Commodore with code that was included in OS 3.1? Or the Cloanto that offered not just a paint program (not a drawing program), but a whole suite of software for Amiga, at very affordable prices, and continued to develop them long after for example EA quit the Amiga, and made sure they work with RTG? Or the Cloanto that made Personal Fonts Maker, that has been used to create tons of fonts? Or the Cloanto that took part in development of the PNG format, and who provided Amiga with a PNG datatype, for free, once the format was a fact? Or the Cloanto that sponsored and hosted numerous developer meetings for a free emulator, and provided the developers of a free emulator with Amiga hardware to help development of that free emulator?
You maybe should ask Toni Wilen, what he has to say, before you play wounded and butt-hurt on behalf of all UAE developers - it is getting very old!

- WinUAE is an important part of Amiga Forever from Cloanto. Do you receive money from them for your work? Do they contact you for adding such or such feature?
Technically and legally, anyone can sell WinUAE; there is nothing wrong with that. But yes, I have received Amiga hardware donations from Cloanto and they are far more useful than some money.
