`11.Jul.2002` Amiforce	Amiforce: Amiblitz and Developer Support Amiforce is immediately offering developer support for Amiblitz programmers. If you have written something in Amiblitz, you can make a connection with Cj-Stroker. If it is shareware, he can create an online registration form, and introduce the program. The goal is to create a platform that both builds the excitement and raises the motivation. Amiga programmers have become a scarce commodity. There must be more new ones and the existing ones must be kept. If you have your own homepage, Cj-Stroker can help you to market your program on Amiforce. That goes for everybody. Steffen Nitz provided the first ones. His programs SN-Münzarchiv and SN-Markenarchiv may now be ordered, and may be directly registered online. The entirety of all this is yet to be attained over the startpage. Before long the Amiblitz section will be newly displayed and correspondingly a new headline will be entered.

`10.Jul.2002` The High Mind (ANF)	Offer for free hosting of Amiga related (not commercial) sites We are running our servers on a true T3 now, so we have plenty of bandwidth and space available. If anyone has Amiga content related sites that they need hosted, I would be willing to offer free hosting on one of our machines to them. There really are some nice sites out there that are endangered of going away due to cost issues.. For such a small, dedicated community, this shouldn't ever have to be an issue. Our servers have PHP4, Perl5, Rebol View/Core and MySQL installed, so all of the above are available to you. So if anyone needs a content site (e.g. non-commercial site) hosted, we can arrange this with you at no cost to you. This applies to Morph, AROS, Rebol, and Be related sites too. If interested, e-mail LotR@merlancial.com. This is my way of giving some back to the Amiga community.. I've personally almost given up hope of anything real out of A.I. now, as they are even in debt to me for a large sum of money...but as far as the Amiga community is concerned, I have better hopes. You truly are a bunch of wonderful colourful individuals who I have always loved working with. It's a shame we haven't made as great a comeback as I would have hoped... (ps) [News message: 10.
