Thanks for your support about proofreading. The text is currently corrected by Hobbe.

andreas · 26 June 2009, 10:07

And now if anybody could make his surname appear correctly in the thread title, too...

Graham Humphrey · 26 June 2009, 10:09

Done

Now all we need is for people to call him Toni instead of Tony...

Doc Mindie · 26 June 2009, 10:34

While I absolutely LOVE my Classic Amiga A1200, I wouldn't mind getting me hands on an A1 or whichever the other MB is called, and get OS4.1 for it.... I'm in "both" camps in that sense.... I use my Classic for the retro experience and would use the 4.1 one for the newer stuff ^^

Just too bad it seems to be not too much software and games for the new-gwn Amiga

Last thing he needs, is people getting confused and calling him Toniy or Tonyi

I have always called him Toni (I think).

Use your "real" amiga for retro experience and use Win/Mac for the newer stuff.

I'm not surprised at all!

Do u expect a lame copy of a 20 year old machine to get the attention of some software house ?? Come on !!
Accept the fact that the Amiga is no more !

Currently? (that was yesterday)... the text is still the same

Some hints:

"You are the main developer of WinUAE, the most advanced Amiga emulator. But what have you do (in term of programming) before WinUAE ?"

do should be done

"Except you, who are the other people working nowdays on the development of WinUAE ? And what are their role in the team ?"

Except should be besides (imo)
nowdays should be nowadays

"How did you get involved in UAE ?"

in should be with (imo)

"The WinUAE code seems big and complex. How do you react when you replaced Brian King as main coder ?"

do should be did

etc etc etc

Besides yourself, who are the other people working nowadays on the development of WinUAE and what are their roles in the team?

Better?

Daff · 28 June 2009, 10:04

I've recontacted Hobbe today, I hope he can send me the proofreading soon.

I just corrected some critical things

Did I say I was surprised? I said "too bad" which is quite different.

How about:

"What were your personal feelings when you took over as the main programmer because Brian King had decided to retire from the project?"

I'm not a native speaker, but yet I know some things in this language.

For people, "replace" sounds a bit mechanical to me. I can probably replace my run-down kitchen sink, though.

In business, I'd normally say he took over as the main programmer when Brian King decided to retire instead of saying "I am now replacing him"

And ... uh ... "coder" is maybe a bit too informal and sounds more like "code hacker"

The english text is now more readable. Thanks to Prowler
