Jon Lennart Aasenden's "Hyperion bought the 3.1 source-code from Amiga Inc lock-stock-and-barrel" narrative is comically false.

Hyperion has an AmigaOS 3.1 source code license, which is different from AmigaOS 3.1 source code ownership.

I doubt any Hyperion license of Amiga IP will exist after the judgement of a material breach of the 2009 settlement agreement. I expect a prompt bankruptcy filling from Hyperion after such a judgement.

A valid contract agreement must have exchange benefits.

It has morphed from AmigaOS 3.1 68K to PPC port outsource contract with a US$25,000 payment, with PPC AmigaOS source code to be transferred to Amiga Inc into something else.

AmigaOS PPC source code to be transferred to Amiga Inc. clause just disappeared?

The AmigaOS PPC port enables AmigaOS to move into an active CPU R&D roadmap.

Haage & Partner did have an AmigaOS 3.1 source code development contract. Cloanto obtained updated OS software components from AmigaOS 3.5 and 3.9.

The author is a blind fanatical which blocked me on FB when there's a discussion about the Amiga OS, NG, etc., because he wasn't able to rebut (and, especially, to accept) to the FACTs which I've reported.

He did the same with the comments which I've tried to write on his site.

He's a lame, pathetic Taliban which lives on his parallel universe, detached from the reality.

Cool... though we had that like more than two decades ago already on Linux UAE (the "famous" --enable-penguins build option.)

I don't think that it's the same.

WinUAE had from some time a separate thread for I/O and updating the host system with the graphics and audio which was generated by the emulation.

Now, Tony introduced a new feature: running the Denise/Lisa graphics generation on a separate thread.

Which is clearly NOT delegating the ENTIRE chipset emulation to a separate thread.

Which is NOT possible without rewriting (Win)UAE (it would be very different from the current implementation). And it's something which I strongly doubt that Tony is inclined to do (maybe in the very long run, once there's nothing else to do).

My point, WinUAE's R&D is not standing still

Opposed to…? It’s all quite dynamic, all the different approaches to recreate Amiga draw and pull from each other. And it’s not just Amiga, the other 68k platform also contribute.
