Breakout game: BabeAnoid 2.5b1
Richard Fhager's Breakout game BabeAnoid was written in AMOS and released ten years ago. In 2003 version 2.0 was released. The next version 2.5 was never released because the author stopped developing Amiga software.
Upon request of an a1k.org-reader Fhager has provided a download link for a beta version BabeAnoid 2.5. This beta version is being not developed further and according to the author possibly has included "some special modes". BabeAnoid requires a 68020 as well as 2 MB RAM. It could be also played with computers with only 1 MB Chip-RAM if some preferences are set to a lower level.

MUI-Klasse: NList source codes "saved"
After Jens Langner could have saved the source codes of a lot of well-known MUI-classes ten years ago with a "emergency surgery" this time he did have to get help from the open source directory ohloh.net to restore the contents of the source code repository of mcc.nlist which have been accidentally deletated on sourceforge.net.
The team of ohloh.net described the happening in a blog on its site.

Workbench replacement: X-bEnCH 0.73 (beta version)
X-bEnCH is an Amiga game launcher with 128 colors on screen (even on a simple A500). This frontend autoscans the harddisk to find WHDLoad games or .exe files and and organizes them into launching listings. X-bEnCh also has an integrated CLI fully compatible with the Workbench CLI feature.
Version 0.73 is a bugfix release:
- Fixed the display speed problem on little cpu (68000/68010) in the menu
- Fixed the display speed problems on high end cpu (68040/68060) in the menu and the launcher
- Fixed a bad multitasking management when launching an .exe file

AROS: Distribution AspireOS 1.95
Nikolaos Tomatsidis released a new version of his AROS distribution AspireOS. It is made for the Acer netbook Aspire One, but does also fully support the Toshiba notebook Satellite Pro A200; also on other hardware the distribution should run, but this is untested.
Changes include a Wifi scanning tool, the editor Annotate, an AmigaOS 3.1 theme, new wallpapers, an optimisation of the boing icon bar and a bugfix for downloading Youtube videos. This time there is no update option for existing systems available, though, instead a fresh installation of version 1.95 is recommended. (snx)

Multi-purpose tool: Jack 3.2.5
Jack is a multi-purpose utility for all Amiga systems. Besides basic file operations Jack features image editing, saving screenshots, a music player, AppStore functions, weather forecast, currency conversion and a diary with connection to the Google diary.
Changes in version 3.2.5:
- AmigaOS 4.1 Update 5's introduction of asynchronously loading the TCP/IP at Workbench startup exposed a new bug in Jack. The DELAY tooltype was previously being ignored, this has now been fixed. If you still see an error message if starting Jack this way simply increase the value of the DELAY tooltype. Value is no. of seconds
- Python ITC Extractor has been updated to version 0.3.2 which adds support for Apple's use of ARGB images in album cover artwork. Thanks to Simon Kennedy
- Moved php scripts to another server, older versions of Jack will continue to run for a limited time only

Amiga Inc.: Bill McEwen's name spotted at BlackBerry live demo
After the official Amiga Inc. press release on availability of classic Amiga games for the BlackBerry tablet PlayBook and the upcoming smartphone BlackBerry 10 (amiga-news.de reported), a video of this cell phone's live presentation has been discovered which supports the claim of a business relationship.
At the title link, Bill McEwen's name has been spotted as a contact person on the phone. Although the corresponding photo does not depict the longtime CEO - allegedly it is the junior -, the entry is titled "Amiga". At minute 4:41 a virtual customer meeting can be seen and at minute 6:16 there are OSNews articles about Amiga from June/July. (snx)

MorphOS: Sudominator 1.1 and U1Synth 1.2
Grzegorz 'Krashan' Kraszewski has updated two of his programs - the Sudoku solver Sudominator and the software synthesizer U1Synth. Both can be also installed by Grunch now.
Sudominator had some problem with new MUI 4 transparency effect for disabled gadgets. This effect has been unnecessarily applied to the sudoku field when live solver was running, so the whole thing was unreadable. U1Synth has got an octave switch, a first small step towards changing it from a toy to a simple, yet usable synthesizer. (snx)
