For people who are into running and who are preparing themselves for a

Subsequently, a program will be devised up to the time of the competition

questions I recommend to have an additional look at the workshop at AUG99.

Route planner: AmiAtlas update in progress
After we have not heard any news of AmiATLAS for some time now there are some good ones:
Although there were much rumour the development of AmiATLAS will be continued. But it takes a little bit of time to program new features and to fix old bugs.
Within the next two weeks there will be a new update with extended and bug fixed cards and with new and improved additional tools. All changes will be contained in new delivered pieces of AmiATLAS 6.
Christoph Gutjahr now manages the newsletter and the mailing list of AmiATLAS. If you want to subscribe then simply send an empty mail to AmiATLAS-subscribe@freelists.org.
If you have ideas of improvement or wishes you can directly send a mail to AmiATLAS@gmx.net.
We would like to thank all Amiga freaks who rely on us and support the development!

ViCaDo (Video-Can-Do) is in the betaphase. More information is available right
here (German.)
AiCaDo (Audio-Can-Do) is in the alphaphase.
DiCaDo (Data-Can-Do) is in the alphaphase.
In the course of working on this program pack a couple of small, helpful tools were created, and I don't wish to keep them from Amiga users.
GetMpegInfo can provide information about mpeg streams.(Video-, Audio- und System-Streams). With shell- and
Workbench-versions.
GetAudioInfo is helpful with providing Audio-Information (16SV, 8SVX, AIFC, AIFF, AU/SND, MAESTRO,
MAUD, MP1/2/3, VOC, WAVE). With shell- and Workbench-versions.

Amithlon: Change to the FAQ-page of Bernd Meyer
As reported,
on 02.04.2002 Bernie Meyer made a public
statement
of the sales situation of Amithlon. Apparently no agreement has been
reached, because on 16.04.2002 Bernie Meyer changed his FAQ page as
follows:
I want to have it!
That's not possible right now, unfortunately. I explained the license problems in the statement. However I hope to have a new, improved, and completely licensed version available soon.
And when will that be for sale?
Hopefully very soon, after the unhappy stuff is cleared up.
Does Amiga Inc. want to publish it?
Yeah, they want to. Things have changed. Nobody is happy about it, least of all me. Amithlon was always meant to be a complete solution, with fully licensed ROMs and AmigaOS. Haage & Partner apparently didn't share this position, but I am personally not ready to compromise in this regard.
Observation of amiga-news.de:
Until now we have just heard one side of the story, so we asked H&P about this sticky wicket. Unfortunately it's not possible for H&P to speak because the signed contracts between Bernie Meyer, Harald Frank (VMC) und H&P clearly state these internal matters not be discussed publicly.
And Bill McEwen can't or won't speak either.

TOMORROW: Amiga: the Friend of the Player
There's an article on TOMMORROW about the Amiga, under the name "Amiga: the Friend of the Player." The article covers the topic of Amiga on the PC (UAE.) The article starts with this wonderful sentence: »Funny haircuts and acidwash jeans, no-one wants these fashion disasters of the 80's back again. But that's not the case with computer games. Even today the eyes of old gamers light up, when they daydream about the legendary computers like C64 or Commodore Amiga. Bring a new life to old games like "Turrican" or "Monkey Island.«

Commentary: The long night of comments - Chris Hodges
In politics it is all only a theatre play, a put-up job, a show for the audience.
Amiga user don't need that - since years they are following one mud bath after the other. Would be something for the TV. Or Spielberg -- "Saving private, hobby MorphOS", but you still have to wait for the "M-Day" after that you could let the blood squirt like hell.

ControlTV beta 0.1 for Mediator
At the 3rd party Mediator support site (title link) of VGR Vicente ´Ami603´ Gimeno has released a new beta version 0.1 of ControlTV
which contains now English and Spanish versions.
There are screenshots too, which show ControlTV in action.
ControlTV is a simple Arexx-script, which uses AWNPIPE to get a graphic user interface for the driver programs of the Elbox
multimedia-CD. With that it is for example possible to switch without any problems between different TV-channels.

AMIGAplus: AmigaAnywhere-list updated
About one and a half year ago the editoral staff of the print magazine "Amigaplus" started a list for an overview of AmigaDE applications in both the printed edition and the online edition.
Now, after some month of no care due to lack of time, the "AmigaAnywhere program list" is updated to an actual level again thanks to Marc Cloppenburg's support. You can find that list within the service section at www.amigaplus.de
or with a click on the title link.

Amiforce celebrates 1st birthday
Cj-Stroker:
Amiforce has today, the 17th of April 2002 its first birthday.
At first it has been planned to release the German version of Amiblitz for this reason.
But due to lack of time this will likely not happen before next week. The editor PED has taken more time than initially thought.
The planned bonus tracks will be a bit late on schedule as well. All that might be finished within the next days. That time also courses and tutorials will start.
The rest of Amiforce will be updated as well. For this the soft guide category will be opened. The start is with OpenAG.
Later this client and AmiComSys + HL_Plugin too will be discribed in helpguide. Unfortunately this takes it´s time.
And here I want to thank all those people who supported me all that time.
Happy Birthday!
