USB: New edition of Thylacine canceled
In October all documents on the Zorro 2 plug-in card Thylacine were released which made it possible to recreate the low-cost USB-controller. Users on a1k.org expressed the wish to have the original design reworked and then sold the construction kit at cost price.

Actually during the first eight weeks several revisions of a reworked layout have been presented which the could have been produced as prototypes. After more than one month of silence the initiator "crasbe" explained that he has canceled the project which was called "Nova-Thylacine".

He has suspend the project in order to prevent "screwing up anybodies business". A commercial competing product which "is not or at least not much more" expensive than the Nova-Thylacine will be available "at the latest by the next quarter". (cg) (Translation: dr)

Workbench replacement: X-bEnCH 0.83
X-bEnCH is a graphical user-interface with up to 128 colours which replaces the Workbench for starting WHDLoad games (.slave, .exe) and requires less memory. According to the developer the programm works with all OCS and AGA Amigas.

Additional to several bug fixes, with the version 0.83 the mouse pointer can be controled with the joystick (important to Amiga CDTV and CD³²). (snx) (Translation: dr)
