Game: Shogo - Mobile Armor Division 1.6
Hyperion Entertainment's port of the first-person shooter "Shogo: Mobile Armor Division" has been updated to version 1.6 which fixes two bugs:
  • Fixed: Some inputs (like the ^ Key for console activation) could cause an ISI crash on some devices.
  • Fixed: If running another program with the same AHI unit in the background, Shogo could crash on exit.
The update is available in the restricted download section. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Lawsuit: Court order denying motion to enjoin C-A Acquisition Corporation
After the failed registration of the trademark "Workbench" in the EU and the denied motion for preliminary injunction against the sale of AmigaOS 3.1.4, Cloanto has to deal with the third setback in a row: the court has denied enjoining C-A Acquisition Corporation as plaintiffs (PDF file).

C-A Acquisition Corp., founded last year and being owned like Cloanto by Mike Battilana, "acquired all remaining intellectual property assets of Plaintiff Amiga, Inc. (amiga-news.de reported) and then turned around and granted Cloanto the right to register and monetize the trademark AMIGA."

The court agrees with Hyperion that "plaintiffs have not acted diligently to meet the deadlines for adding a party or amending their claims."

And it is explained: "Turning to the question of adding a new party, the Court is struck by how Plaintiffs' actions appear reactive to Hyperion's pending Motion to Dismiss. Hyperion's ability to defend these claims is prejudiced by Plaintiffs' attempts to shuffle the parties and the rights of those parties mid-case. Although Plaintiffs discuss their efforts to move quickly in February and March of this year, Plaintiffs do not adequately explain why C-A Acquisition was created after this case was filed, and after the deadline for joining new parties. Plaintiffs do not adequately explain the delay between creating C-A Acquisition and the February 1 transfer. If the Court considers Mike Battilana's assertions that he was trying to acquire Amiga's rights well before Hyperion's pending Motion to Dismiss was filed, this does not explain why Plaintiffs could not have moved the Court for an extension of these deadlines at an earlier point. Plaintiffs' actions do not strike the Court as demonstrating diligence and granting this Motion would prejudice Defendant Hyperion. Accordingly, the Court will deny this Motion in its entirety."

MorphOS: E-mail client Iris, beta version 54
"Iris" is supposed to become the standard mail program for MorphOS. It supports IMAP and can read and create HTML mails. The program requires MorphOS 3.10. You can give feedback to the author using the corresponding discussion on MorphZone.

Changes of beta version 54:

Features:
  • Improvements in the email editor; added default font (can be changed in settings)
  • Connected servers will periodically poll for new messages
  • Rewritten connection handling to improve performance and fix connection issues over time
Bugfixes:
  • Switching between several displayable email compontents only worked once per component due to a bug in tmp file lookup
  • Fixed an issue related to saving attachments from an email open in a separate window after the active folder has changed in the main window
  • Improved server disconnection handling
  • Fixed a crash in vmime related to IMAP folder access
  • Unread messages count could sometimes be negative due to an overflow
  • Fixed a long-standing reconnection problem where internal exception routing would skip over the actual reconnection routine
  • Fixed an OAuth2 issue which caused servers to reject authentication if they weren't used for a long time (days) so that the refresh token expired - this delegates login back to the web browser as required by OAuth2
  • Worked around an imap.wp.pl issue where the server returns messages in a random order instead of sorting them by uid
  • Fixed a Sent folder refresh issue after sending an email
  • Fixed a wrong UID count in folder issue causing server commands to fail after emptying a folder
