Read Fleecy's comments from the AmigaOne mailinglist below.
Yes Amiga is in control of OS4.0 - we have merely outsourced
the project management. I am in daily contact with Hyperion and a feature document and deadlines and timescales are mulled over in minute detail.
As I explained at the show, this deal is more about freeing
Amiga up to work on the SGA (Second Generation Amiga). AmigaOS4.0 was always more to do with getting a PPC based OS working on very specific PPC HW, and we were wasting a lot of time bouncing backwards and forwards. With the outsourcing agreement, the implementation has been moved much closer to the first piece of HW itself.

Fleecy comments on outsourcing AmigaOS : Comment 20 of 51 | ANN.lu |
Posted by smithy on 06-Nov-2001 21:53 GMT | In reply to Comment 1 (Dave): > Oh no, another anti Amiga inc flame war starteth I think. :-(
If you have a quick look at the threads over the past week or 2 containing "flame wars" (your words) you'll see that most of the posts are actually quite well thought out. I say most, because the rest consist of posts like yours, endlessly whinging and whining because Amiga Inc might be subjected to something so evil as a bit of objectivity.
In fact, these kind of posts - I'll christen them the W&Ws (whingers and whiners) - are worse than the now few true flamers. The W&Ws offer tedium and crud and cover up the good messages, the W&Ws don't like long threads, but make a signficant percentage of posts to them, and the W&Ws don't like discussion because they fear it might provoke thoughts. |
