Just a mere observation concerning the transfer of assets:
When Amiga was sold before, it received main stream media coverage.
I don't see anything resembling a press release from anyone this time.
Anyone else find anything? (other than amiga centric sites)

You'd have to dig quite the rabbit hole for years to find out who owned the Commodore brand. Remember what Commodore USA had to do to get their attention? There was no media coverage then. On that subject, do you know why Commodore USA got such huge media coverage when it announced the C64x? It paid big bucks for the coverage. Barry himself told me that. There are channels to pay for "organic" news coverage.
Sorry. Perhaps my post was not clear.
When Amiga assets changed hands prior (think Amiga Inc. here), there was mainstream coverage.
All I am saying is that since Amiga assets have changed hands again (Cloanto), I see no mainstream announcement. There is either a reason for this or there is no one left to care.
Re:Commodore
I found the 1st secured creditors in docs long ago. I also wrote in great detail about this (AW) long before Barry and I discussed the likely outcome in public. (also on AW)
I'd be surprised if anyone knew anything about this IP that I haven't already learned.
