Talk to CBM, not to me. CBM runs their technical developer support on BIX.

I know – you only provide the terrorists with cash… it's not *your* fault that they buy weapons and bombs with it, is it? It is, once you have seen a bombing. And I do talk to CBM, those that show up here – and I understand from conversations at AmiExpo that BIX may not be CBM's haven forever. I hope so. It would happen sooner if developers would quit funding Byte to beat on us. –Ben–

I pay BIX nada. CBM's developer support is on BIX. So complain to CBM not to me …. CBM's amiga.dev special section is where the IFF dicussions take place.

If you, as an isolated case, pay BIX nada, then that's nice – for you. If no developers were on BIX, then no discussions would take place there, period. CBM would be talking to itself, and would leave. The fact that you (and any other developer) is on BIX encourages others to do so, instead of the opposite. and I'm not complaining. I'm simply pointing out that you, and anyone else who works with/on BIX is providing a push agianst the Amiga instead of for it. If you can live with that, whatever your self justification may be, then so be it. –Ben–
