AmigaOS 4: Mindspace 0.9
MindSpace is a drawing program to create among other things flowcharts, UML diagrams (Unified Modeling Language), mindmaps or vector images. The most important changes for version 0.9:
  • Use of Nodes to go from this to this in one click
  • Full range of arrow/shapes at ends of line and connectors (MindSpace is now almost useful!)
  • Wide range of preferences, including option to use AISS for main toolbar. Thanks Mason!

AmigaOS 4: Beta version of the PC-Emulator Bochs
Bochs which is a program for emulating a x86-PC was published as beta version for AmigaOS 4.

Because the Amiga 4000 of the author does not work any longer he cannot complete his port. The current version contains a CyberGraphX-version which still have some minor bugs while the Picasso96 part cannot offer a colour conversion from 16/24 Bit to 8 Bit.

The AmigaOS 4 version of the emulator cannot create hardfiles - that means files where the simulated harddrives are installed - so it must be done on other systems.

On principle Bochs allows the use of the operating systems BeOS, Linux, DOS, Windows 95/98/ME and Windows NT/2000/XP.

Happy Birthday: Amiga is of age!
21 years ago, the Amiga was born. On July 23, 1985, the multimedia star of the 80's celebrated its premiere in a large celebration in New York Lincoln Center under the presence of personages like Andy Warhol and Debby Harry. So, the Amiga is of full age in the law understanding of its US of American home as well and is allowed to treat itself to its first legal beer. Cheers! (nba) (Translation: cad)

DTP: Pagestream status update
In an email newsletter explains Dan Kilroy from Grasshopper LLC the current status of the DTP application Pagestream:

Haage&Partner are no longer the German distributor for Pagestream. As new partners are the Alinea Gmbh mentioned and another company that is still to be announced. Unfortunately they have no access to the data of users who are registrated at Haage&Partner, these users are called to contact one of the current Pagestream distributors for support and anew registration. They hope to get soon access to the domain pagestream.de registrated by H&P, too.

The online documentation is being reworked step by step, the latest changes can be accessed under Documentation->Recent. Until now the chapters "Getting started", "Lessons" and "Document chapters" are revised, the chapter "Text" is being worked on. The general overhaul of the documentation is about 40% completed.

The online documentation now shows screenshots of the user's preferred operating system. For this you have to set the OS under "My Profile". People who want to contribute screenshots can do so by clicking on any screenshot. On the following page there's the possibility for registered users to upload further versions of this screenshot.

The current beta version of Pagestream will be replaced next week by version 5.0.3.4. Users registered at pagestream.org will be notified automatically via email. New among other things are new keyboard shortcuts, numerous bugfixes, the possibility to edit the changelog of a Pagestream document, some new scripting instructions and some smaller changes within the GUI.
