Thats a black hole question :-) (never actually answered)

As far as I do understand, Apollo team is made of people
from previous Natami team, and its extremely visible on so many
levels (CPU, SAGA ...) that I suppose fuel are not only ideas.
Majsta and Kipper were hardware addons that were important
fresh blood that had NOTHING to do with Natami, with exception
of interest (I had, you had ...)

But clearly, and most importantly, this one has so far 2 products on sale, 2 forthcoming and is in constant development :-)

They not share code, but they are done by the same people.
Apollo 68080 is an improved new CPU design done after the NATAMI project.
The Apollo design was influenced by all the experienced gained during the development of the 68050 for the NATAMI.
