Amiga Inc made us clear with their decisions in february that there
is no base for a cooperation for several reasons.

o technical. they presented a complete ridiculous plan for every
developer which read it.
o business
o and very important also amiga inc's future for exconomic and
technical sw management.
Some may call this arrogant but this isn't about me the "best" which
i'm not but with obnoxious decisions with amiga inc's management.
If they wanna use WarpOS as their base...fine..they get it for free
and H&P does everything for amiga inc's IP with pre financing.
But to suggest that we should integrate our modules which were
designed for morphos ABI/API/HAL enviroment into the warpos framework which
wasn't designed for this is well ridiculous and i don't even talk
about the political issues involved here which are far more
annoying.
It's like asking to run MacOS X drivers inside Linux PPC.

Amiga Inc decided in Febrary that they wanna depend on H&P and
Eyetech to deliver them a new OS base for their ""DE"".

P.S. We all wish the amiga market would be a happy place with an
united force but this is just not the case anymore since CBM
died. Everybody has its own interests and there is no mutual
cooperation possible where these interests collide expecially
when there is a lack of respect.
I'm speaking here openly about these issues...does anybody here
think amiga inc or hyperion&partner documents their opinions
and real happenings as openly. I don't think so.
Has anybody ever asked if perhaps H&P used the Predator HW
designer to design a HW for their enviroment so that they
have some politicial instrument at Amiga Inc. to avoid the
situation of Bplan/MorphOS with SW and HW and them having
nothing besides an older emulation.
H&P/Eyetech controlls the AmigaOne 1200 HW as we control
our HW. The other side used this instrument already last
year when our request was denied...and this has not happened
because Eyetech wouldn't have wanted it. They only care for
a HW they can sell."
