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 38 of 51 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Andy hall on 07-Nov-2001 12:18 GMT | In reply to Comment 36 (AlBolone): Both have done more damage than can be repaired now with this pathetic fight. I've tried to be neutral during the whole thing, and wait to see what the systems are like before deciding where so splash my cash. But this has gotten boring. The diehards on both side acting like tossers, Ralph bitching this, Fleecy alledging that. Why should I (or anyone else for that matter) put up with it?
After seeing Sam Thomas' cool mediator set up at WOASE, flying like nowt else on just an 060, I think that maybe that is the pinnicle of Amiga computing.
I don't want to buy a nex-gen machine if it is going to cause me a headache BEFORE it comes out.
So a round of applause for everyone involved in this nice little MOS/AOS saga, you've managed to do what C=, Escom, and Gateway never managed......Kill the Amiga. |
