Interview with Moss and Ewen
Daniel Robbins took an interview with Fleecy Moss and Bill McEwen (Amiga) that has been published at IBM in the section
"developerWorks:Linux overview:Library - papers".
The interview starts with the Amiga Classic and brings out very positively what it really is.
Next, the technology of the new system is beeing explained. Most of this should be known already.
Bill McEwens statement the SDK was sold out after 15 minutes at Neuss, is, as already said by Sebastian Brylka
at Fun Time World, wrong. It was available there for a lowered price on the second day, too.
Daniel Robbins is president/CEO of Gentoo Technologies.

News from AmiWest
Teemu I. Yliselä has listened to the UGN live audio stream
of Bill McEwen and basing on his notes (he did not record the stream himself) he summarized the following on
ANN.
The target term for the release of the AmigaOne presently is December 2000. AmigaOne will base on
Amiga's own motherboard design including not off the shelve components.
Amiga founded their own hardware department leaded by Dean Brown. This department is ought to design
custom hardware for various devices, which then will be offered to third party manufacturers for
production.
The SDK is selling better than expected. Amiga is in contact with a large number of big
consumer electronics and software companies including every important game smithy.
Many of them already purchased the SDK. After Bill McEwen's recent two TV gigs the companies'
interest increased.
A SDK version for Windows will be available from next month.
From next week Read Hat will distribute the SDK. Sun started to utilize Amiga's software
to present Java, too.
It is beeing planed to release beta versions of the OE.
Amiga plans to go public
Paul Nolan will take care of jobs under contract for Amiga.
Licences: No software developer will be forced to pay sums to Amiga.
Instead of this there will be the possibility to take part in an unsolicited certification project.
This project will offer the opportunity to put the Amiga lable on your own product, and the chance
of your product beeing marketed directly by Amiga. This will cost 1,50$ US per sold unit.
Amiga will offer low cost promotion and merchandising products to the users.
At the show Amiga presented a touchscreen basing on the ARM and running with the new OE. The design came form
Mick Tinker.
Back compatibility to the Classic Amiga will be carryed into effect by the OE using something which will not be
an emulation.

Village Tronic Petition
Untill the end of September votes for the Village Tronic (VT) Petition can be made. This petition
intends to persuade VT to place service documents at the disposal of authorized repairing companies
to ensure technical support for or repair of VT products. VT still did not state concretely on the subject
how to deal with the repair of their products in the future. At this time there is no repair support.
Unfortunatly Paul Qureshi only recieved about 200 votes, by now. So, who did not vote till today either can make
this up at the titlelink or can send an email
directly to the promoter of the petition.

|
T.o.T. Update Feature Disabled
Eternity at their news section:
«Unfortunatly it has happened, certain users procured themself unauthorized access to our ftp server.
For this reason we were forced to disable the update feature of the Tales of Tamar Demo. We point out that
more such trials endanger the release of an Amiga version of Tales of Tamar definitively. We are not keen
on working for nothing for four years and we have attached a lot of money to the development. Only our alpha
testers are authorized to access our ftp server. Furthermore we point out that definitively there will be no
Aminet version of Tales of Tamar free to duplikate. Thus there is no reason for such trials.»

MP3 Exchange Market Napster may Stay Online for the time being
«But the abatement of the preliminary injunction does not mean winning the proceeding raised by the
recording industry, at last - the current decision only keeps up the status quo untill the court has dicided
on the reproach that Napster would violate the copyrights of the musicians, and the music companies knowingly
and purposely. Untill early August Napster has time to comment the charge. The music industry can then answer
on Napster's comments untill early September. The judgment is then expectet during September at the earliest.
