Could I read this email conversation?

I remember Wolfgang's mother wrote this letter also to me and Wolfgang has
never explained nothing...

Yes, of course. I think we should inform also Urban Muller and all AMINET
users... Bo, you could be the right person, since you have known Wolfgang
personally...


I've no words..... At first I was thinking about a joke.... What could be
happened so bad? Maybe Wolfgang had decided to give up Amigaworld project and
buy a PENTIUM 3000.... This could be a very bad news.... but when I realized
really the truth I thought that this cannot be the truth.... it cannot be a
suicide.... I remember all the talkings by letter (then email) between us....
I remember that he IS an intelligent boy, likes very much his political
science studies, very entusiastic about AmigaWorld project..... Should be
another explanation..... No kind of depression can cause such a desperate
action....
leave life, family, friends, interesting university studies..... AMIGA and
AMIGAWORLD project.....

No words, again... and such a big sadness......

However, if truly Wolfgang decided to die himself, I would tell him,
everywhere he is, that I'm very angry with him..... Suicide is an easy way to
solve all problems without considering that parents and friends remain alone
and desperate trying to find an explanation.....

Wolfgang will live forever in our thoughts....

See you later all of you.

Guido Alfani.

I'd like to remember Wolfgang with this last inedit email he sent me on late
June about the bad Amiga situation.... a presage??

Hi Guido!

I just browsed through the pages that you sent me.  I can agree with every
single word, and I really like AmigaOS---actually, that's why I use this
computer...

But it seems that this OS does not have any future:  Amiga, Inc. has announced
to release Amiga OS 4.x this year.  It will be built around another OS, so
there is no more Exec, no more "s:" directory, maybe there won't even be
datatypes anymore.  Workbench will be completely different, too.  I guess that
I will not be able to port AmigaWorld to this machine.  And all the software
that I have installed now won't work on this machine.

So it is quite clear that software for the existing, great AmigaOS won't be
developed anymore as soon as this new version is out.  Developers will write
programs for AmigaOS 4.x, and I would have to buy myself a new computer to run
them.

And if this happens, I probably will buy a Wintel computer and not an Amiga,
that is not an Amiga anymore.

Best Wishes (anyway),
Wolfgang
