I should think this will only cover AmigaXL (most of which is under GPL
anyway). There is no provision for a /free/ version of AMIthlon, though a
crippleware demo may be possible - where the emulator slows down
considerably after a set period. A /free/ version of AMIthlon would be a
disaster, as people would only use this instead of the commercial version
even if it meant getting illegal ROMs off the net. Without any income from
the product, Harald and Bernie would cease support and development, and
Amiga users are no more morally upstanding than anyone else.
