"It saddens me greatly to announce that, effective today, any of my Amiga-related software development has been mothballed indefinitely. This means that, pending any unexpected developments, there won't be any "Amithlon v2" (aka "Berniethlon"), nor any further support or add ons for "Amithlon v1" by me."

"Berniethlon" - The End : Comment 139 of 221 | ANN.lu |

Well, Mr. Meyer himself has stated that McEwen only relayed information given to him that a deal was just around the corner. He believed it was all about to fall into place and so he reported it to us.
However, Bernd has also reported that H&P are also in violation of Amiga Inc's IP. Even if everything was 100% okay with H&P and Bernd Meyer, H&P would still be illegally selling Amithlon as they no longer have a valid license from Amiga Inc. Infact, I believe this is how thise whole fiasco started, is it not? So what does that tell you?!? I think history has shown that those who deal with H&P tend to get burned. H&P seem to think they own the Amiga market and can do whatever they seem fit. This is not the case and they need a good wake up call! If they wanna fall in-line and get their shit together and start playing fair then I won't hold any grudge. I just don't see that happening any time soon.
