AIUI from the FB group, there has been a falling out between Francois Lionet and the guy who is extending AMOS with AGA etc.

The developer has left the AMOS group and the source has been removed. Details are sketchy, but it seems that it's a licensing problem.

Edit: The reasons have been posted by the author of AMOS Pro-X to FB, and since been taken down but have been copied into the AMOS FB group.

Basically, The author released the source as open-source. Francois Lionet has since decided that he wants to sell it for 200 Euro a pop, and give the author 7 Euro per sale.
The author has deleted the sources. Whether or not Mr Lionet has retained them is unclear - it's possible he wants to close it up for profit.
