AmigaOS Change-Logs Release Campaign
Matt Sealey started a petition to find out how big the common interest
in the publishing of change-logs since AmigaOS 3.1 really is.
The change-logs contain changes and add-ons compared to the previous
versions of the AmigaOS. This could be helpful for the development of new software.
The logs for AmigaOS V2.0 up to V3.1 are available on every Developer CD.
According to Matt Sealey Haage & Partner declined publishing their changes on the Developer CD V2.1.
There is the possibility on http://www.starforge.co.uk/petition.html
to sign a petition.

AAA Award Canceled For The Time Being
Since 1997 the AAA Awards were given to people out of the Amiga area, among
other things for their hard- and software products. Among the award winners
have been Holger Kruse, Dave Haynie, Marcel Beck, Kermit Woodall, Stefan
Burstroem and SoftLogik. Now the awarding of this price will be canceled for the
time being. The reasons for this are too little manpower and too low support. In
the future the award may be granted again. This depends among other things on
the community and Amiga. Everybody who wants to comment on this may write
to f98-msa@f.kth.se.
The actual AAA Award Homepage at
www.aaa-awards.org
will be offline in the near future. The new one can be reached via
www.amiga-cg.se/aaaa/.

ANN Looking for Advertising Income
For financing the Amiga Network News
Christian Kemp is looking for companies to advertise on ANN. The
latest advertising banner showed only 5 US Dollars during 13 days while 50,000 page views
were counted. Costs appear to ANN among other things because of web space,
telephone (monthly around 100 US Dollars), and domain name.

Ultra Violent Worlds released
Some time ago Crystal Interactive
has announced to offer Amiga games on dual format CD-ROMs, that would contain a
version for another computer system along with the version for the Amiga. Now, with
Ultra Violent Worlds the first game of this kind has been released for the Amiga
and IBM PC compatibles.
Ultra Violent Worlds is a 2D-Shooter with vertical parallax scrolling on three
levels, background animations in arcade quality, impressive explosions and
atmospheric sound FX inclusive a matching soundtrack. Next to the 1 player mode
there's the possibility to play with two people on one split screen at the same time.
The game was developed by the Australian company Vorlan Software. The
Amiga version was already released in 1998 and contained several bugs at that
time. These were fixed in this re-release.
The Amiga version runs on any Amiga with AGA, 2MB Chip-RAM and 2MB Fast-RAM.
The PC version runs on Windows 95/98 with 8MB of free RAM.

Hello Amigans, as there's the huge amount of 4 new background images on the
AmigaOS 3.9 CD since AmigaOS3.5 I have decided to do some myself. The first
archive is already available on Aminet under pix/back/os39wallp.lha (1024x800
24Bit). A 800x600 version was just transferred onto Aminet. The 800x600 version
is named OS39w800.lha
Both archives are freeware and I allow Haage&Partner to use these.

CDTVTools v1.0 Published
CDTVTools v1.0 has been released on the Airsoft Softwair homepage.
This package is a collection of programs using the CDTV base library
to give also normal Amiga users the CTDTV feeling. All of the included
programs are commodities which can be controlled via Exchange. So now
everybody can e.g. start the original CDTV screen blanker, CD player or
preferences program.
The tools are basing on the CDTV basie library "playerprefs" by Commodore
which is implemented in the CDTV's ROM. Since I discovered documentations on
this library on the Developer CD v1.2, I was able to develop these tools within
two days. Of course these tools are freeware.

the PDF files of the patent history have been re-converted and can be read trouble-free
with Apdf v2.2, now too.

blanks of the type TDK CD-R74CMEC and shipped in a bubble wrapped envelope.
Since all of the specimen copies are out, we can now care for the orders very fast.
Thomas Unger (Kickstart@nexgo.de) is always
all ears for hints on interesting websites still missing on the CD-R. If these match
the concept of the KICKSTART ARCHIVES, he will contact the owners.

The Quantum Leap: StormC 4
The latest version of the successful development system actually represents a
quantum leap: network capability, shared make, CVS, modified GCC compiler for
the Amiga hunk format, global full-text search, extended editor, debugging
of tasks and shared libraries, and the new StormDOC.
But the most important feature of this new development system is the step
it takes towards the new AmigaOS. Though still everything runs on the Classic Amiga
and will be published like that, but everything was developed with easy portability
in mind. Last but not least this was the reason for a modified version of the
GCC used as compiler.

Scalos 1.2d Beta Released
A new beta version of Scalos, the extensive Workbench replacement, has been
released. The website hasn't been updated, yet. Please read the readme's
before installation!
Download:
Scalos-V1.2d.lha
Scalos-IconSystem.lha
Here the original mail:
All OS3.4+ owners will be pleased to know that a new Scalos exe has
been released! The fixes are a combined effort with the original
source from Juergen and the dedicated effort of Dave for sloggin' it
out through late nights! Until the website is updated later today you
can grab the new executable only archive from:
http://scalos.striatum.org/products/scalos/main/Scalos-V1.2d.lha
To install, simply copy the executable in the archive to SCALOS: path.
Please continue to read this email before installing anything new!
You will also need the latest (release 3) of the seperate icon system
archive
http://scalos.striatum.org/products/scalos/main/Scalos-IconSystem.lha
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THESE FILES ARE STILL CONSIDERED BETA STATUS
UNTIL IT *APPEARS* EVERYBODY IS HAVING NO PROBLEMS. We appreciate error
reports to the mailing list, share your problems regarding OS3.5+ icon
images with us so we can ensure all problems are fixed.
NOTE:
We are aware that the logo in the about requester does not remap to
the correct colours currently, this is a side effect of the new 'C'
ported code for portions of Scalos. This will not affect use and we
hope to have that fixed before the next release. Which should
hopefully feature some decent bug fixes.
Ensure you backup your OLD 'Scalos' executable file before replacing
it with this new one, just incase. Once everything is finalised all beta
files will become release versions and appear in the main Scalos
distribution archive. Hey, we might even upload it to Aminet too :-)
Have fun, and lets hope all is well.

PC Manufacturer Gateway Cancels Every 10th Job
Onlinekosten.de wrote:
«The US computer manufacturer Gateway after unexpected deficit cancels
more than every tenth job. As the company announced on Thursday (local time)
in San Diego, California, job slashing would go off already during the first
quarter this year, Gateway employed 19,300 people worldwide in 1998. The offeror
specialized in direct shipping of PCs announced a deficit of 94,3 millions of
US dollar for 4Q/2000, because of diclined demand and risen pricing pressure.

Heise wrote:
«More than 10 % of staffers of the oppressed PC manufacturer Gateway will loose their
jobs: this is a consequence which Gateway drew from extremely base balance for the 4th quarter.
Balance was even worse than expected after the profit caution from late November when Gateway
stated to be in the red in the 4th quarter.»

WB2000 Images and MiniGlowIcons Update
Due to great demand now there is an updated archive of the Mini GlowIcons, and
an special archive for WB2000 users who can only use IFF-pictures with this program.
If number of downloads, which you can reach via "Aktuelles", will keep on this high level
there will be new icons added.

Nice Calculator for the AmigaOS
Who ever worried about the shop-soiled calculator of the AmigaOS
can look forward, now! On my homepage one can download the initial
version of CoolCALC. This one virtual offers the same functions as
the original program, but can be embellished with skins (one is part
of the archive) and can be iconified. Under the title link you will find
screenshots and also the download area. Have fun!

"Die Welt": How The Chips Learned Being Noisy
"Until 1985 acoustical there was no alteration according to the standard of computer sound
which was introduced by C64. To this time Atari had the idea of producing an home computer Atari ST
equip with a MIDI-interface. This Musical Instrument Digital Interface made it possible to
control electronic music instruments like keyboards with the computer. Atari ST was the first computer
in series that used this possibility and made the data exchange between computer and music instruments
possible. The built-in 8-Bit-sound-chip had only the ability of producing three mono voices, but the
main processor worked perfectly together with the MIDI-interface. Musicians from all over the world
recognized the future of computer music and almost each sound studio connected its mixing desk with
an Atari ST. Since the early nineties a MIDI-interface was standard for sound cards.
Two years after the introduction of the ST, in 1987, Commodore set a new standard for music computers
with the Amiga 500 for the mass market: four-channel-stereo was the new standard. Programming of music
directly in the computer was now possible without expensive equipment. For a long time this was
the greatest advantage of the Amiga towards other computers. Because of that and because of its great
graphical abilities it was the game computer at all."
Also in the today`s `Die-Welt`-article Concerto Commodore
it is reported of the musical abilities of the C64.

NVidia OS Opinion Poll
There is an opinion poll at the NVidia news site in the left menu about the preferred operating system.
The Amiga is also on the list and is currently on the third place with 17,99 % after BeOS and Windows.
Supplement 11.01.2001:
The opinion poll has been canceled because the voting was falsified by scripts which vote again and
again. The script-kids do not have the faintest idea which harm they make!

«Though Corel Corporation will publish their this year's strategy first on 23rd of

notions in US reports Corel's share value rose at 7.5 % at the American technology stock
exchange Nasdaq, last Monday. Already in December speculations came up about Corel might take this step.

Picture Supplement regarding WoA 2000
Mirko Nauman has sent us a whole lot of pictures from the WoA2000. Unfortunately we cannot
publish all of these, cause 34 MB are simply way too much. We selected the nicest pictures
and made a little catalog out of these which you can find here.
This is how the pictures were taken:
Mirko filmed on the show with his MiniDV video camera SONY DCR-TRV8E and then
connected this camera via SVHS cable to his second Amiga with PicassoIV
and PalomIV TV module. As his camera takes 25 frames per second he had to
select and save the best pictures. Then he converted the pictures saved before to
JPEG using the picture format converting software GfxCon by Dirk Farins.
