Book: Brian Bagnall's "Commodore: The Amiga Years" at Kickstarter
Within 24 hours, after the Kickstarter campaign for the second part of Brian Bagnall's book "Commodore: The Amiga Years" was started, the financing target has been achieved: 15.000 Canadian Dollar were required, 25.000 have been donated so far. The book is supposed to be published in December.

For 22 or 40 Canadian Dollar a digital (in a desired format, DRM-free) or printed version of the book can be preordered. Besides, some additional packages are available, e.g. the so far unpublished ebook "Commodore: The Early Years" which is about the years 1954 till 1974. (cg) (Translation: dr)

DeliCate Linux: New distribution for Amigas in progress
DeLicate is a Linux distribution which is meant for old computers with very little RAM and low processor performance. At least an i386 or 68020 processor (FPU and MMU are required) is required but a 586 with 233 Mhz or a 68060 with 60 Mhz are recommended. If you want to use a graphical user-interface, your computer should have more than 16 MB RAM (68 MB are recommended).

According to the maintainer in its forum, currently the m68k-port is developed running under ARAnyM emulator. The aim is to port the distribution which is based on the Linux-kernel 2.4 and uClibc to Atari and Amiga computers. (cg) (Translation: dr)
