[News] IOSPIRIT freezes its own AMIGA-developments | ANN.lu |
Posted on 08-Mar-2004 11:53 GMT by Felix Schwarz | 69 comments View flat View list |
Felix Schwarz, with immediate effect, freezes the development of
fxPAINT, fxSCAN, VHI Studio and the IOUSB- and VHI-drivers. Medusa and
IBrowse are external developments and thus are not affected.
All products will stay in distribution. Whether the development will
be reactivated at a later point in time mainly depends on the further
economical and social development of the market and the profits made
with it.
The AMIGA-pages can be found at http://amiga.iospirit.de/ in the
future. Although www.iospirit.de currently still redirects to this
page, we nonetheless would be glad if existing hyperlinks in
AMIGA-context would be adapted accordingly.
Subsequently, you'll find an open letter from Felix Schwarz to the
AMIGA-community in all its occurences.

IOSPIRIT freezes its own AMIGA-developments : Comment 27 of 69 | ANN.lu |
Posted by MIKE on 08-Mar-2004 16:41 GMT | In reply to Comment 23 (Don Cox): Don, if you are still using an amiga most all of your software is unsupported and has been for years. I don't think the expectation that the author of a product should provide free support until the machine running the product turns to dust is a realistic expectation. The market can no longer justify this fellow's investment (time), in supporting the products. Unless specifically stated otherwise when you purchased the product, you are not entitled to updates/support, and I hardly think this makes much difference in the purchase of software for most people. The product is purchased to do a job, not because they have a good update policy. |
