Only "change" I've noticed is how much longer Amiga.org takes to load! lol Seriously... and I have high-speed and nothing else different on my end. Pretty darn close to the time of the change I noticed this. Either during the initial loading of the page, inputting of the password and then posting sometimes, will the browser hang for many seconds. The picture upload feature is seriously bugged out too (unless it just doesn't like Safari 4.04 or something) as I have to constantly refresh the upload button, even for small files before it finally takes.

And A1260 and Delshay... what are you two talking about leaving? A.org, the legacy machines or projects you've been working on?

it whats happen in the last few days i spent a lot of time and money on my project only to see thing not go my way,it look very likely i will leave this site but my project will go on,but everything will be kept in-house and any updates will be given to users directly via PM.

@delshay

Ok, but what happened exactly ? (if you want to tell of course)

[RMK305]

...and what is your project?

[Tension]

LOL! I'm glad someone else asked. I was embarrassed to have been left out of the "loop"... c'mon guys, no need to jump ship really, is there? We're all about legacy, current and future Amiga "projects"!

Anyone know what pissed Jens off enough to leave?

It's pretty clear in his message, but (if I'm drawing the right conclusion...), when a.org switched to the new SOOPER SEKRIT OWNERS WHOSE IDENTITY MUST BE PROTECTED *AT ALL COST* (because apparently they're batman or some other ****ing thing, I don't know) the idea that they were above revealing their identity, and that this place was used as an informal point of contact for Jens' efforts (as well as containing some personal information about him, in his profile I guess) really torqued him off.

Yeah. We dont know who owns our personal data here on Amiga.org because we still haven't been told who owns it, despite people really wanting to know.

This security vulnerability led Jens to leave.
I don't blame him. After all, he is a businessman, and a big figure in the Amiga hardware scene. He didn't want his details compromised, and so, left.

We're told it's DiscreetFX Partners who own the site.

But I think there's more to it than that. Otherwise they simply could have told us.

Have you heard the Roundtable Podcast?

What a farce.

Link, good sir?

Can't seem to find it anywhere... perhaps someone else can locate it.

The first half hour want recorded anyway... But it was brilliant listening to it live!!

[Tension]

Found it I think... Here: http://www.amigaz.org/podpress_trac/...T_20091115.mov

Yeah, watch out someone might find out what town I live in and that I don't like Apple any more than Microsoft. ;^) OOOOOOOooooo. They might also see the picture I posted of my old dead A4000D board or find out that I'm wacked enough to want to buy an X1000.

Ah never mind, I post more than that to my Facebook account.

Really, who cares who owns the site as long as it continues to be a useful form of contact. It's not like Jens was posting project designs that required an NDA or something. Most discussions involved information he wanted to be publically vailable anyway.

The idea that anything could be important stolen by the new owner is ludicrous.

If it's such a big deal just remove your location info and don't post anything confidential.

Jens was probably drunk when he made his last post, and he'll probably be back again sometime.

Yep does sound a bit strange. I have no personal information on this site apart from my D.O.B 11/09/1902 and my real name 'Mr Big'.
