Fleecy explains what normal users can do to make the next AmigaOS a success: Buying products, subscribing to magazines, evangelising to the world, nagging non Amiga developers to get on board, showing off to your friends, forming Amiga clans and kicking non Amiga clan backsides in games, joining and participating in local Amiga User groups, and working in Team Amiga and other internet based groups. (..) We should start some sort of almost evangelical thing - A target of 50,000 registered OS4 users, and all work towards that end.
I have to admit that the "evangelical thing" sounds pretty scary to me. :)

Licensing the a4k design and licensing to make an zico complient ppc board
for a4k is two very different things. Which do you mean ?
If the former then that is a totally different discussion as it's not
even close to the same technical solution. And there may be hundreds of
different reasons for them to turn down such an idea.
If the latter, then perhaps there were other things about your proposal
that they didn't see as something bringing fruit. Just because you
want to do something it doesn't mean that Amiga Inc mustn't agree to that
it is achievable or be a sound idea before handling out a license. Eyetech
has a license for it (obviously). Perhaps you should find out why eyetech
was not turned down while you were.
(It may be your childish "foot in the mouth"-attitude for all I care,
it's always nice to see how civil some people are in the Amiga 'world')
And besides it is still not up to Amiga Inc to deliver hardware solutions
,which is what the discussion was about and what was the whole point of
my message. Delivering hardware is up to their hardware partners.
