Cloanto owns trade marks "Workbench" and "Amiga Forever"
In February 2006 Cloanto applied for the trade marks "Amiga Forever" and four months later for the "Workbench" as well.
In February 2007 and March 2008 Amiga Inc. entered a caveat against the registrations of the trade marks.
On 27th February both opponents applied for closing the proceedings: Amiga canceled its caveat against the two trade marks of Cloanto. And Cloanto will not contest Amiga's trade mark "Amiga". Thus Cloanto owns the two US trade marks "Amiga Forever" and "Workbench".
Commodore USA which had announced an Amiga computer with a operating systems called Workbench keeps acting cool: The "Chief Technology Officer" emphasized that Commodore USA is relieved because the name "Workbench" had raised too much expectations at Amiga users.

Under the title link Oliver Roberts has published an update of his WarpPCX datatypes for AmigaOS 3.x, WarpUp, AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS which are available as Shareware.

- Added workaround for a bug in OS4 which can cause a crash when a requester is opened (bug fixed in intuition.library 53.32)
- Fixed (VBCC fix) potential system lockup when calling the GM_RENDER method in the WarpOS version (e.g. when using Multiview with the AfA OS picture.datatype)
- Added workaround for a bug in OS4's datatypes.library DTST_MEMORY handling
- Enabled virtual memory usage in OS4 version
- Asynchronous i/o now uses dos/SendPkt instead of exec/PutMsg
- MorphOS and WarpOS versions recompiled with VBCC 0.9a
