AmigaOS 4 speaker fired / confirmation regarding A-EON's 2012 restructuring
Since 2011, the Canadian developer Steven Solie was employed as head of the AmigaOS 4 developer team for Hyperion Entertainment ("team lead") - a title which, according to Solie, was self-given and later qualified by him to be the "spokesman" of the team. Still in last autumn he organized the AmigasOS DevCon as part of the AmiWest, although this time he didn't give a speech for Hyperion at the actual event anymore.

As Solie himself now confirmed, he was "fired" by Hyperion as "team lead" as well as "core developer". In Hyperion's support forum he now is listed only as beta tester. Three days ago he was still called "AmigaOS Core Developer" and "AmigaOS Development Team Lead".

Interestingly on his LinkedIn profile under work experience he states now to be "Team Lead" of the "AmigaOS ExecSG Development" since january. According to rumours (German), since at least 2018 the AmigaOS 4 core ExecSG is owned by Trevor Dickinson (A-EON Technology), which Mike Battilana, meanwhile owner of the Amiga rights and of the website of Amiga Inc. via C-A Acquisition Corporation, confirmed to the video podcast "10 Minute Amiga Retro Cast".

Additionally the reasons for the withdrawal of the Hyperion shareholder Ben Herman from the original A-EON company and its relocation to Great Britain were confirmed (amiga-news.de reported):

In the third part of Trevor Dickinson's background report on the development of the AmigaOne X1000 in the lastest issue 137 of the print magazine Amiga Future, he did not only mention more concrete costs (cf. the first page of the advertisement) but also describe that money which A-EON was going to use for the AmigaOne instead was used to keep Hyperion afloat after the financial burden due to the legal dispute with Amiga Inc. without the knowledge of the two other directors.

Apecat: Hobby project requesting advisory support
Since the end of January the Norwegian developer Stian Søreng has introduced his Apecat project under the title link. The abbreviation stands for "Amiga Processor Expansion Card for Application Transfer" and is an extension which is plugged between the mainboard and 68000 processor of an Amiga 500. In this way data are supposed to be transferred from one computer directly into the memory of the Amiga.

Similarly Søreng did develop a C64 extension called C64FC which makes it possible to write C64 programs on a modern system and to test it on a real C64 using an USB connection. Exactly in this way programs are supposed to be executed on an Amiga without diskdrive or harddrive - Apecat is tested as caseless board without keyboard and mouse.

In his blog entry Søreng also described technical problems and asks experienced Amiga developers for help. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Relec Hard- & Software (ANF)


Dealer: Relec reworked website
The Swiss dealer Relec has reworked its website. Relec was founded in 1996 to close a gap in the French speaking part of Switzerland and countries of the same language. An English-language version of the website will follow.

Official press release:

"On March 15, 2019 we put online the new version of the site, completely redesigned with the precious help of our graphic designer Tcherno. From the beginning, our objective was to facilitate and simplify navigation, provide better visibility of our product range and simplify ordering operations. On the other hand, the migration of the Joomla site to Wordpress has made it easier and more efficient. We hope you will find this new version more modern and user-friendly. We wish you a lot of fun using our new tool and thank you for your trust and loyalty. We are doing everything we can to improve this tool but we are not free from errors and other defects. We are therefore staying tuned and thank you for reporting bugs!

About Relec:
Created in early 1996, Relec was born from the difficulties faced by the Amiga at that time, combined with the cruel lack of suppliers for this machine in French-speaking Switzerland and in French-speaking countries. With a minimal infrastructure, RELEC tries to provide current and "offline" products.

Soon an english version will be available!
Tank you, Team Relec" (snx) (Translation: dr)
