It's really been an Amiga week, hasn't it? As such, it seems only fitting to close this week off with some seriously epic news from the Amiga community. As most of you will know, Hyperion and Amiga, Inc. have been embroiled in a tough legal battle over the distribution and development rights of the AmigaOS, and all its associated trademarks. The epic news is that this situation is now completely and utterly resolved.

If you read the article, Amiga Inc. is no longer involved with AmigaOS at this point.
Therefore, who cares about Amiga Inc.?
The real heroes here, the Frieden brothers, who are two extremely talented developers, are getting the chance to set the future direction of this OS without the involvement of a corporation that has done nothing to do so.

They haven't actually produced any OS themselves. They bought Tao's Intent and added a few bits and pieces. They outsourced development for AmigaOS itself (first Haage & Partner - later Hyperion). There is little to care about regarding Amiga.
That said I am curious what they intend to do. As I see it they have absolutely nothing left of any value.

Anyone with an interest in OSs?
