AmigaPOP.8bit.co.uk is finally online!
Here you'll hopefully find all information you could possibly want about the "AmigaOS distribution policies and POP/PPC hardware petition". I hope the background information and FAQ will be especially helpful to clear up any confusion surrounding these issues.
If you have not yet signed the petition, then please do so now! Please help spreading the word by linking to AmigaPOP.8bit.co.uk. It's not too late to save our favourite OS and a unified POP-based hardware market!
In other news, I have finally managed to get in touch with the PetitionOnline.com administrators. The few abuse and sabotage attempts so far have been removed from the signatory listings. Not that any garbage would ever reach the recipient of our petition, but I understand some thought that it didn't look too good...

AmigaOS + POP/PPC petition official web site : Comment 43 of 280 | ANN.lu |

What, you mean the petition which has been going for weeks yet has a pitiful 300ish signatures, many of which are now "false entry voided" and most of the rest (if you bother to read the comments) actually either disagree with the petition or dont understand what the petition is about in the first place. (But then, since the terms of the petition is so badly worded and contains such stupidly inaccurate statements its hardly surprising). And of those few genuine signatures most are probably made-up names from mos-groupies who've signed numerous times. Considering the number of people who must have seen the petition by now, 50 or so actual signatures from real people isnt too impressive now, is it ? |
