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 36 of 51 | ANN.lu |
Posted by AlBolone on 07-Nov-2001 10:34 GMT | In reply to Comment 35 (Andy Hall): Who is good and who is bad for the community depends very much on who will deliver what! bplan became only a relevant option b/c Amiga Inc. offers no option and cannot convince the community they ever will... By really providing results bplan has archieved something that we all expected from Amiga Inc. but never got. So basically Amiga Inc. have to blame themselfes for the sudden competition! And if the lethargy of AInc. remains people will be awfully happy to have the bplan products in the end.
Besides: the other significant difference between bplan/MorphOS and Amiga Inc. is that the first ones really produce and care for their stuff themselfes while the others just forward the necessary work!! Obvious what a community like ours likes more... |
