Event: Amigahellas at DTE 2007
Dimitris Panokostas writes: Amigahellas, the Greek Amiga community, was present at the greatest Greek technological exhibition D.T.E. 2007 (Digital Technology Expo), in charge of the "computer history" stand.
With the valuable help from the organizing company, we managed to give the opportunity to both young and older visitors to meet and use computers from the past. Visitors had the chance to (re)live the experience of using computers like the Philips Videopac, Commodore PET 8032SK, Commodore Plus-4, C64-C, C128-D, Amstrad CPC 464, Amiga 500, 600 and 1200, Jupiter Ace, Acorn Electron, Timex Sinclair, Philips MSX among others.
It wasn't only about the past though: there also was an µA1 running the latest version of AmigaOS 4, as well as the latest version of AROS Live-CD and AmiKit 1.4 running on PC laptops.
The website dte.amigahellas.gr was set-up to host the photos and video from the event, so that those who couldn't make it there can have a glimpse of what happened. And if you feel like it, we'd be happy to receive any comments, which you can send using the Contact form.
We would like to thank the organizing company again, who helped into making this possible, all the visitors who had fun with us and all the people who gave their best to make this event an unforgettable experience indeed.
Finally, we'd like to wish... many happy returns! (snx)

Further development of TLSFMem as memtlsf
The further development of TLSFMem will by done by Bernd Roesch. He get the permission from Chris Hodges to reassemble the executable. If Chris don't changes his opinion, Bernd will start with the workaround of TLSFMem at December. A Download link will by added until it is available.
German writen statment from Bernd Roesch.
Bernd Roesch schreibt: Ich habe von Chris Hodges die Erlaubnis bekommen, TLSFMem (amiga-news.de berichtete) zu reassemblieren und zu releasen, mit der Bedingung, einen anderen Namen zu wählen und in der Readme-Datei darauf zu verweisen, dass der Kode von Chris Hodges ist. Daher nenne ich es memtlsf.
Den Quellkode möchte er nicht hergeben, aber reassemblieren ist auch kein Problem, AmiBlitz war ja auch ASM-Source, der zudem ca. einhundertmal größer ist, und wurde reassembliert, da die Sourcen unvollständig waren.
Da TLSFMem Probleme macht und Chris mir mitgeteilt hat, dass er keine Bugfixes mehr vornimmt, werde ich noch bis Dezember warten und dann versuchen, sofern sich an seiner diesbezüglichen Haltung nichts ändert, die Fehler zu beheben oder Workarounds dazu zu finden.
Derzeit erzeugt das Beenden von AmigaAmp Enforcer-Hits und Abstürze, wenn WipeOut (68k-Memtracker) mitläuft. Auch das Starten von YAM 2.4 erzeugt endlos Enforcer-Hits. Dies passiert auch ohne AfA-Nutzung.
Wer weitere Probleme mit tlsfmem bemerkt, möchte dies bitte mitteilen.
Anmerkung der Redaktion: Download-Link wird ergänzt, sobald vom Autor mitgeteilt. (snx) (Translation: aj)
