Original OSNews Interviews Yesterday, I wrote a short editorial concerning the news that Magnussoft started accepting pre-orders for the next version of Zeta, 1.21. Today, via email, I asked a few short question which arose, more or less, in the comments' section of that editorial, to Magnussoft's Rene Weinert. Updated: See question 3.

Hi Sogabe,

Yes, not everything is. :-)

The rights to sell Zeta are from Bernd Korz (who says he obtained these from BE Inc.)

Looks like Bernd has given a license to Magnussoft to sell Zeta (but the name Magnussoft Zeta, implies it is made by Magnussoft & not Yellowtab or anyone else).

Also, Magnussoft will provide support for Zeta & is the main distributor of Zeta, etc.

Basically, Magnussoft runs the show & without them there would be no Zeta.

An Independent developing team: sounds like they don't work for Yellowtab or Magnussoft. They could be part of some secret organization. :-)
Actually, it is some former Yellowtab employees, with maybe a few new faces, working together to develop Zeta.

I highly doubt that Be, Palm, or Access would give a license to an individual (Bernd Korz) as opposed to a company (yellowTAB). Maybe Mr. Korz has another company that holds the license agreements and that we do not know about. But, then what do I know? :-)

There is one thing we agree on tonestone75: yellowTAB and business around ZETA has always been sort of secretive. I believe that is usually for a reason: that they have something to hide. :-)
