AFD-Copyright News
The AFD-COPYRIGHT Official Support Site had just today its 1000th visitor! This shows that there still is interest in the "Standard Amiga FD-Software Copyright Note".

The recent visitor boom happened partly due to the fact that so many Amiga News sites reported about the latest release. Thanks to all news-webmasters for your support! I collected some of the sites on the page "What's New?" If you are interested, you can visit the AFD-Homepage at: http://AFD.home.pages.de/ (title link). The list of news sites even includes one in Russia - and a Russian translation will be released as the 15th language soon! Keep the momentum going! Thanks! (Translation: mb)

MorphOS status
After MorphOS got attention by small pictures on their homepage (AmigaNews reported), there is now a small status report on the project itself:

We are currently working on rewriting as many elemental parts of the AmigaOS as possible directly in PowerPC code. The tests of the 68k emulation have been finished already for some time, and it works reliable with Workbench 3.1 and 3.5. CyberGraphX, the CS PPC SCSI driver, the CDrive CD-ROM file system and other stuff has almost completely been ported natively, to achieve best possible performance even on the current CS PPC card generation.

The ppc.library has also been completed in a full PowerPC version (means the former 68k part is native, too), so direct compatibility to PowerUP software is ensured, and available software is working directly without special MorphOS adjustments. For software adhering to the original PowerUP specs there shouldn't be a problem at all.

Since everything is running directly on the PowerPC CPU, the infamous CPU context switches for 68k AmigaOS are removed, so PowerUP software is frequently running faster. Programs with many I/O accesses or graphics output via AmigaOS can profit from this.

We are just now testing several PowerUP software products, and will soon publish a guideline as well as a list of successfully tested software, so PowerUP software can employed under MorphOS without problems.

We are working on a developer release; due to several hardware defects, the release date was sadly delayed. (Translation: mb)

Working title: "Audiomaster 2000"
Frank Fenn (Bright Light Software) writes:
We (Michael Ulbrich and myself) have taken on the sources of AudioStream, which were released on Aminet. The goal is to create an easy-to-use, not too complex sample tool in the style of the classic Audiomaster IV. We consciously don't implement special functions like 2D/3D spectrograms, since they are of little use for the home user.

Some features are (or are planned):
  • Loader: AIFF, WAV, MAUD, 8SVX, RAW, CDDA, MP3, MOD (converting modules to samples) (plugin concept)
  • Saver: AIFF, WAV, RAW, MP3 (plugin concept)
  • Clipboard/Range: Cut, Paste, Delete, Clear, Reverse, support for HD projects
  • Audio In/Out: AHI only, no native Amiga audio support (what for)

As soon as the first public version is finished, it will be offered for download on the homepage above (title link). Of course we gladly accept suggestions. (Translation: mb)

CGXBlanker, DPMSManager update
Stefan Robl writes:
I integrated numerous user wishes in both programs. CGXBlanker version 1.25 now has an ARexx port, another very nice blanker module, does not get confused by windows or screens popping up, and can optionally suppress blanking when the mouse pointer is on the title bar.

DON`T mix WarpUS Datatyes with PowerUp version. If you use WarpUp make sure that you don`t use any PowerUp software in background (e.g TurboPrint).

Applefritter: AmigaOS as POP (PowerPC Open Platform)
Applefritter writes: Still no definitive words from Amiga, but chances are good that AmigaOS will be ported to PowerPC Open Platform.

Nobody knows precise details :-(. Sadly. To me it currently seems to be the other way round. What I read from the last statements and interviews with Bill McEwen and Fleecy Moss is that they want to concentrate fully on TAO and their OS and do not plan to support the PPC. Haage & Partner maintain silence in this matter. (ps) (Translation: mb)

Amiga 2K
Press Release
February 29, 2000


Prizes and more Exhibitors,

The fifth group of exhibitors is now listed on our web site at:

      http://www.amiga-stl.com/show.html

In addition, we have started listing the door prizes on the
prize page.

You could be the winner of a new Amiga Developer System. That's
right, an Amiga Developer System. Amiga Inc. is going to donate
one of their brand new "Developer Systems" to be given away as
a door prize.

Now I know you're going to ask... "What's a Developer System"?
Well... you're just going to have to come to the show to find
out.

Or, perhaps you might win one of two rides in a REAL airline
simulator. What's that you ask? Nothing less than the same
thing all the airline pilots are trained in. That's right, a
real full blown airline simulator with an instructor to show you
the ropes on just how to get one of those huge airline jets
off the ground, and of course back on the ground. Lot's of
knobs, swithches,  buttons and they all work. Not like a
computer simulator where you move some wimpy joy stick or click
the keyboard. This is the real thing. You sit in the cockpit,
you're trained to move ailerons, rudders and elevators. You'll
move the yoke and control all the radios, navigation systems etc.
You'll be shown how to do takeoffs and landings. Maybe we'll even
show you stalls, buffets, and what the arch looks like at night
from 3,000 feet as you fly your approach into St. Louis. Of course,
all this is simulated, it just doesnt' feel like it. Because an
airline simulator is known to make you feel like your in the real
thing. On top of that, Amigan-St. Louis will give you a real logbook
that you can write your flight times in.

There are lot's more being donated too. If your company wants
to donate prizes to Amiga 2K, simply email Bob Scharp at
bscharp@icon-stl.net and tell him what you are sending. Then
email a web banner and a discription of the prize to him. He
will list you as soon as he confirms your prizes.

Don't forget, it's not too late to exhibit at Amiga 2K, the largest
Amiga show in the Americas. Just fill out the handy exhibitor
form. Go to http://www.amiga-stl.com/show.html and click on the
"Exhibitor" button. Then fill it out. You'll be glad you exhibited.

WOW, Amiga 2K is going to be HUGE!

Regards,
Bob

Digital Almanac II update
The latest version of the astronomy software Digital Almanac II (Rev. 1.8.8) is now available for free to all users from the author's homepage. An upload to Aminet was also done, so the Archive will soon be available there soon.

Moreover, the author wants to thank all participants of the DA-PPC survey. The positive feedback of the survey will therefore be rewarded. As soon as DCE starts production of the PPC boards, DA will be released in a first trial version for WarpOS. The PPC part of the homepage will therefore be reworked as soon as the port becomes an issue.
