`21.Aug.2008`	IBrowse: Status-Update Oliver Roberts from the IBrowse developer team has given a survey of the current status of IBrowse on the official mailing list. The owner of the copyrights Stefan Burström recently moved and therefore has still not an Internet access. Because the server which the team uses and which includes the source codes, changelogs and similar things is hosted by Burström the development currently stands still. Roberts assures that the project was not canceled - but currently it is necessary to come to an arrangement with Burström which makes a further development possible.

`21.Aug.2008` amigafuture.de (Webseite)	AmigaOS 4: Infrared-receiver and Ethernet-Audio "ParIR" ParIR written by Daniel Westerberg is a hardware/software combination which consists of two parts: On one hand it is a commodity which recognizes infrared siganls with the help of a hardware which is connected to the parallel port and then starts user-defined Cli or ARexx programs. The second part sends analog audio signals over a an Ethernet cable to a analog multiplier. Westerberg uses this combination to listen to the audio playback of his AmigaOne in the living room without laying additional cable. The archive which the author has published includes the software as well as all necessary documentations for recreating the hardware components. (cg) (Translation: dr) [News message: 21.

`20.Aug.2008` Amiga Arena (ANF)	Amiga Arena: Interview wit Hans-Jörg Frieden On the occasion of the forthcoming release of AmigaOS 4.1 Amiga Arena has intervied the developer and project manager Hans-Jörg Frieden (in German). In this interview he told that that currently ports to additional PowerPC platforms are in progress and therefore further announcements for the operating system will follow soon. According to Hans-Jörg Frieden the goal for AmigaOS 4 is still always the embedded section. There are interested firms which want to use the operating system as "Multimedia-Content-Platform". He himself is specially intersted in systems based on CELL-processors, the PPC 970 by IBM or Freescales 8641(D). And he does not object if there would be a x86-version but he thinks that currenty it is not realizable. (snx) (Translation: dr) [News message: 20.

`20.Aug.2008` Klaus Schwägerl (ANF)	Amiga Walker: A Clarification Klaus Schwägerl, meanwhile CEO of Die Projektfabrik GmbH, has sent a letter to us at amiga-news.de about the Amiga model Walker, which was shown as a prototype in 1996 by Amiga Technologies at the CeBIT fair in Hannover, Germany. Below you can find a translation of what he wrote: I'm just moving with my company and that's why I stumbled across the master design model of the Amiga Walker once again. This made me surf the web for a while to look for articles about the Walker. What I read there astonished me and prompted me to clarify some things: 1. The Amiga Walker has not been designed by Frog Design, but by the greatly talented designer Daniel Gilgen on behalf of Stefan Domeyer for my former company KS Design in Frankfurt, Germany. The idea to expand the Walker step by step until it becomes a tower finally originates from Daniel Gilgen. He was the one who built the prototypes for CeBIT from the master design model which I do still own. 2. The transfer of the rights to the product was dependent on the payment of our royalty. As this money was not paid, the rights to the product stayed with KS Design. After closing down KS Design, the rights were transferred to me as a private individual. 3. Merlancia Industries never had any rights to the product. We also communicated that to Merlancia Industries in this way as that company did ask us for a license. At some point the contact to Merlancia has been lost; we don't know whether this enterprise is still active or not. I hope this can improve the understanding of the case considerably. With kind regards and a sad feeling about this project never entering production, Klaus Schwägerl (snx) [News message: 20. Aug. 2008, 18:35] [Comments: 1 - 21.

`20.Aug.2008` Amiga Future (Webseite)	MorphOS: Lucy 2.24 Lucy didn't care for hidden windows and thus Unmask and IControl's Hide-Window feature didn't work anymore when being used together with Lucy. This has been fixed. (snx) (Translation: dr) [News message: 20. Aug. 2008, 16:54] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
