Amiga.org The Phoenix Platform Consortium
Eine Gruppe von namhaften Persönlichkeiten hat sich in diesem Konsortium zusammengefunden, um Hilfe und Vorschläge für die Entwicklung einer Referenzplattform für die Amiga-User zu geben, die ihren Amiga upgraden möchten. Die Gruppe hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt, die Verantwortung für diese Plattform zu übernehmen.

Das Phoenix-Plattform-Konsortium wird damit die Verantwortung dafür übernehmen, Amiga-Anwendern und -Entwicklern, Hilfestellung und Empfehlungen für Referenzplattformen zu geben.

Somit wird es zwar keinen "neuen" Amiga geben, aber es werden die Weichen für eine Plattform gelegt, die dem Amigafeeling Rechnung trägt. Die Liste der Mitglieder ist wirklich beeindruckend und vielversprechend.

The Phoenix Platform Consortium
13 September, 1999

We are pleased to announce the acceptance of provisional charter for the Phoenix Platform Consortium.

Phoenix signatories believe it is time to place our destiny back in the hands of folks who understand what the Amiga is all about. You will notice members of the original Jay Miner team within our ranks.

Unlike other new entities we will not field questions from newsgroups, mailing lists, or in email, nor will we be erecting a marketing facade to false hopes. Results and honest direction are our mandate.

The Phoenix Platform Consortium will assume responsibility for aid and recommendation for reference platforms for the Amiga users who wish to upgrade their present Amigas, as we establish an open migration path to a new platform. That platform will in spirit and in feel be a new Amiga experience while incorporating and surpassing the features found on the desktop elsewhere today.

More information will be posted when we have facts to present. Please do NOT email the participants in curiosity. We ask for your patience in this matter. Please respect the wishes of the participants named below. There is much to do and we have just begun.

As information becomes available it will be posted on mailing lists, newsgroups, and at the following website: http://owlnet.net/phoenix/ which will be up shortly. This announcement is freely repostable.

Thanks, from the Phoenix Platform Consortium, currently:
