Amiga vs Thendic Update: Amiga is Back! : Comment 69 of 129 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Gregg on 16-Mar-2004 21:14 GMT | In reply to Comment 11 (Graham_nli): " So what were they doing signing that license agreement with Thendic? "
Have you read the agreement? It is in the submitted evidence. It shows that Amiga Inc. don't have a transferrable license for TAO's technology. It also shows that the agreement was for Thendic's Windows CE device. Pegasos isn't that. It also shows that Amiga Inc. would do the port once the hardware details were given to them - also something that never happened. It also says that Amiga aren't bound to supply the source code in case of non-compliance.
Hang on - I'm genuinely confused here; anybody care to point out the mistake(s) in this simplified summary?
AmigaDE runs on intent.
The whole point of intent is to allow applications to be platform-independent.
Therefore AInc. don't need any detailed hardware info, or even any software source, to "port" DE; all they need is intent on the platform, and that's Tao's business, not AInc.'s.
Help? Anybody?
