HydraBBS
|
HydraBBS Source Code available
The source code for HydraBBS is now available for download. The author, Dominic Clifton, gives
permission to continue developing the program, but you must not charge a fee for it. However he
contradicts himself in saying also that he wants a full version if parts of his program are used
in commercial or shareware products. This seems to be more a basis for talks... ;-)
Supplement 13.04.2000:
In the Amiga News Forum, Dominic Clifton clarified the conditions for using the HydraBBS source code:
If you want to continue development of HydraBBS, you should present the version to Dominic prior to release, if possible. You must not sell the product.
If you use parts of HydraBBS in your own program, or use the source code as a basis for own ideas for other BBS programs, Dominic recieves a full version of that program. (Translation: mb)

Much interest was aroused in the meeting and discussion with authors of the "Amiga Vademecum" manual.
Visitors had the opportunity to meet the editor of the new Amiga-dedicated magazine: "eXec".
New products from ELBOX were on show: the FastATA ZORRO IV controller and the "Mroocheck" mouse
interface with support for wheels.

tecChannel.de: Can Amiga succeed at a Comeback?
Alltogether there have been 24 such promises since Gateway purchased the Amiga
technology and patents, but Gateway allowed the hardware to fall 4 generations
behind current existing systems. Then they fired the manager in charge of
the Amiga project (Jim Collas)
Now the rights and technology lies with a new company named Amiga. Why
should things now be any different? Why should anyone believe that this
antiquated platform has a chance in today`s marketplace, regardless of how
ingenious it is adapted? Who is behin this new company?
