Just an added note as David Scheiber posted this on MorphOS-News and it does make very clear what the objectives are:

Genesi started a discussion today on MorphZone and apparently in weeks past on the Phoenix mailing lists that seem on target for the future. Genesi intends to license a full bundle of software and provide it to all Pegasos I Users at a deep discount. Raquel and Bill will use this as the means to fully and finally test the web-based purchase strategy they are planning for the Pegasos II and Genesi in the Fall of 2003. The Pegasos I Software Bundle will be sold this summer at the same time as the Pegasos I G4 upgrade. "It is not just the online purchase we are concerned with, it is the whole order/shipping/warranty/customer relations management system that we are concerned with and that needs to be working perfectly. Finally, all this effort (which must be constantly monitored) has to tied into solid support for users and developers. There are broader general issues and local ones. We intend to develop active 'localization' for technical support and for language support, while at the same time providing resources for all users and developers through a central site." said Bill Buck and Raquel Velasco.

And added: "What some people seem to be missing in the short term is the positive effect this will have on the growing Pegasos Community of Developers and Users. Satisfied and productive Pegasos I owners will propel the Pegasos II in the market place and this will improve the overall condition for all Resellers, Developers, and Users.".

Please feel free to make any suggestions of software you want to get licenced. Currently, there are two places to do this: here on the thread focused on this or at Phoenix on the mailing list moderated by greenboy.

Best regards,
Raquel and Bill

P.S. A BIG thanks to "Ants" (Anton Reinauer) who got this all started!!!
