I may just go ahead and say on my website that Im going to make Amiga branded hardware and software and wait for them to contact me. In my experience sometimes its easier to ask for forgiveness then permission rather than ask for permission first. |
hmm according to your website, this has been already done _________________ ____________________________ c64-2sids, A1000, A1200T-060@50(finally working!),A4000-CSMKIII ! My Master Miggies- Amiga 1000 & AmigaOne X1000 ! mancave-ramblings X1000 I BELIEVE |

Now you will probably learn wrath of the Amiga community. Amiga and Linux in one sentence, that sounds like abomination to some of us.
But if you get proper licence from Amiga.Inc, then you can count with my voice on this forum.
Edit: In some cases, Settlement Agreement grands Hyperion responsibility to legally defend "Licenced Marks" (eg. Boing Ball), be careful, you may end in court with them. (See 13. Intellectual Property Enforcement)Last edited by pavlor on 22-Jun-2013 at 07:22 AM.

Indeed.
Actually, at this point everything to do with this from CUSA until this latest development seems a circus to me. Send in the clowns._________________

If anyone bothered to read Trevor's blog, they'd know the answer to that. He wrote about Roberto and the distro almost a year ago.

Fantastic summary Olaf, I'm often confused myself about how the AROS distributions/projects relate to each other.

Should probably include this link with posts from cgutjahr and HyperionMP, just to be clear.

well fair enough but be forewarned that Amiga branded Linux boxes with a Linux distro called OS4 is akin to cannon fodder _________________ ____________________________ c64-2sids, A1000, A1200T-060@50(finally working!),A4000-CSMKIII !

where are we again?
@thread
And I see it this way... if someone has a agreement with Hyperion he can be sued by Amiga Inc. and vice versa. It is a deadlock so the brand "Amiga" is (at the moment) completely useless. Hyperion has no interest that something else than PPC and their AmigaOS will ever be sold using "Amiga" and PPC based solutions they could offer are not competitive (and thus sellable) today. Except someone with a huge pocket that acquires the rights from both Amiga Inc. and Hyperion and thus ends the deadlock nothing will change.
It is a pity (regarding marketing) but it is at the end not very important anymore. |
