Workbench enhancement: BetterWB 3.5
Similar to AIAB, AmiKit or AmigaSYS, BetterWB is a collection of Workbench enhancements for AmigaOS 3.1, which are useful but rather simple and therefore require low hardware configuration. It is meant for e.g. purists and users of low end Amigas or Minimig users.
Changes in version 3.5:
- Fixed Redit and Ed duality. They now live together in harmony
- Fixed the IconSet typos for those german friends out there
- Goodbye GZIP. Welcome ZIP and UNZIP
- DirWork is still in love with Redit after the Ed affair (new DW.cfg)

Workbench enhancement: BetterWB 3.4
Similar to AIAB, AmiKit or AmigaSYS, BetterWB is a collection of Workbench enhancements for AmigaOS 3.1, which are useful but rather simple and therefore require low hardware configuration. It is meant for e.g. purists and users of low end Amigas or Minimig users.
BetterWB runs on any Amiga and is provided as disk images. It requires the original disks of Workbench 3.1 (may also work under 3.0, but was not tested) and about 10 MB harddrive memory.
Changes:
- Fixed two enforcer hits present in the status command since CBM days
- Fixed a compatibility problem that surfaced with ClassAct (Thanks David)
- Fixed some problems with DefIcons when using GlowIcons (Thanks Jarek)
- Updated icon.library to 46.4.334
- Added a new commodity (CronTask) that can easily manage job scheduling
- Added a warning to both MagicMenu and CronTask prefs, so you can only configure them when they are actually running
- Plus many more fixes and minor enhancements

Olaf Schönweiß has updated his AROS/68k-distribution AROS Vision. Additionally, AROS Vision 2.4 will be the basis for the next version of the linux-hosted distribution Aminux provided by Pascal Papara and will be integrated into his new AppStore.
Improvements in version 2.4:

For the next version of AROS Vision, these are the main objectives:
- improving integrated developer environments
- adaptions to real hardware (like changing icon set)
- making use of AREXX ports of the different applications
- adding own small components

SSL vulnerabilities in Amiga software
Harry 'Piru' Sintonen reveals security issues on Amiga SSL implementations.
Critical vulnerabilities are found in IBrowse, SimpleMail and other programs.
Summary of the text file found at the title link:
- IBrowse 2.4 is vulnerable to Man in the Middle attacks (sslsniff)
- SimpleMail 0.40 is vulnerable to Man in the Middle attacks (sslsniff)
- AWeb and IBrowse 2.4 support insecure SSL 2.0 and weak ciphers, enabling trivial attacks against the encrypted traffic
- SimpleMail allows weak ciphers, enabling trivial attacks against the encrypted traffic.
- AmiSSL is based on old version of OpenSSL, and several security vulnerabilities have been found since
- YAM 2.9 has secure SSL implementation (barring the deficiencies in AmiSSL itself)

Pascal Papara has updated his complete computer system "AresOne". The PC is equipped with an AMD-processor (E-350 Dual-Core) and Nvidia graphic board (GeForce 8400 GS) and is compatible to:
- AROS (native)
- ARIX (still in development, Hybrid OS: AROS based on the Linux-kernel, maintaining its binary and application programming interfaces)
- Aminux (Olaf Schönweiß' AROS/68k-distribution AROS Vision under the Amiga emulator FS-UAE, which is launched based on the Linux distribution Knoppix)
- AEROS in versions r3 and r4 (Pascal Papara's Linux-hosted AROS-distribution)
AROS Broadway is installed as standard but you can choose any other AROS-distribution.

Workbench enhancement: BetterWB 3.3
Similar to AIAB, AmiKit or AmigaSYS, BetterWB is a collection of Workbench enhancements for AmigaOS 3.1, which are useful but rather simple and therefore require low hardware configuration. It is meant for e.g. purists and users of low end Amigas or Minimig users.
BetterWB runs on any Amiga and is provided as disk images. It requires the original disks of Workbench 3.1 (may also work under 3.0, but was not tested) and 8 MB harddrive memory.
Changes:
- Updated icon.library to version 46.4.332
- Added showboards command so that we can detect some ACA accelerators (WhichAmiga fails with some of them)
- Added PowerSnap commodity for enhanced clipboard functionality
- Redit 1.8 replaces the aging Ed and gives you much more functionality
- Added a new "IconSet" preferences app that lets you switch between different built-in icon types
- Plus many more fixes and minor enhancements

DigiBooster 3: Open Source Portable DigiBooster 3 Replayer released
Press release: After succesfull introduction of DigiBooster 3, APC&TCP releases an open source DigiBooster 3 replayer routine organized as a static library. The code is being released on permissive, two-clause BSD license. The player is written in clean C with minimal dependencies. As such it has been succesfully compiled and tested on numerous platforms: AmigaOS 4 and Morphos, Linux (on x86, x86_64 and aarch64), Windows (XP, Win7, 32 and 64 bit) and MacOS X (x86_64). It also supports the most popular compilers:
GCC, Clang and Visual C++. The package contains source code of two example tools: 'dbminfo' displays information about a module, 'dbm2wav' renders a module into 44.1 kHz 16-bit stereo WAVE file. Of course libraryAPI documentation is provided as well.
Based on this code we plan to release in the near future more ready to use components, like shared libraries for AmigaOS and MorphOS and a few plugins for popular audio players.
Release of this code ends difficulties of playing DigiBooster 2/3 modules on non-Amiga(like) systems.
The library package is available for downloads on the official DigiBooster 3 webpage. Any questions related to the package may be asked on the official DigiBooster support forum.
