Interview with Petro Tyschtschenko: "I still have loads of fun"
In an interview with the online mag amiga.topcool.de, Vice President Petro Tyschtschenko talks
about his private live, the OS3.5 sales, two new staff members in Braunschweig, and that he won't
give up (despite dwindling numbers of Amiga users; he estimates there are 80 to 100 thousand
worldwide, and about 20,000 in Germany).

C64 Specialists wanted (repost)
Note from the translator: This is a repost, since I fumbled with the layout
of the original post. Sorry. (mb)
Did the C64 work its charm on you fifteen years ago just like us? Well, probably the Amiga did that...?
The Commodore is out of production. But in the eighties, it was the favourite toy of that generation.
Today, it is catching dust in the basement or is used by a few musicians as strange sound machine. But
perhaps you can help us on our search. Perhaps you know exactly the people we have to ask.
WHO WE ARE?
We are two communications designers from Wiesbaden who grew up with the old C64. We were constantly
blamed for wasting our time with that "thing", instead of doing important things. We now catch up
on this. :-)
WHAT'S THE PLAN?
We want to publish our Thesis by the end of 2000: "Commodore 64 Culture" (working title), researching
this phenomenon. We want to show the culture that grew around the C64, and still exists today: The
8-bit machine as stange sound machine, nostalgic toy, collector's item. Experimental, playful,
multimedia. The accompaining CD-ROM will contain well-known songs as well as C64 emulators for
PC and Mac. A webpage is also planned, elaborating on the multimedia part of the book and linking
to other C64 pages.
WHAT WE ARE INTERESTED IN
We are interested in the world accompaining the C64: The history, technical details, sales numbers,
press reviews, games, crackers, hackers, first office applications, copy parties, the marketing
drive of Commodore, the demo scene, today's SID-Chip fans, the self build hardware extensions,
banner printing orgies, computer "summer camps", the booming software industry of the 80ies,
waiting for datasettes, sore fingers while typing listings and what is left of that today.
WHAT DO WE WANT FROM YOU?
Of course we have to do research. We need your help with that. We are collecting opinions, details,
background information, documentation from journalists, fans and developers. From the submissions,
we will create the compendium of the C64 culture. We are looking for every detail around the "bread box":
Every contact suggestion, whom to talk to, every website we can look at. And of course your story.
HOW TO START?
If you are interested in the project, contact us. Forefront, we want to know what kind of C64 user
you have been or still are. Please describe in a few sentences what you did back then. Of course we are
curious about any kind of stories. And of course we are looking for the answers to the most important
question: Why, do you think, has the C64 been so successful, and what did it start? Afterwards, we
will contact you, and would be happy if you could answer us a couple of questions. If you know someone
who is as interested in this subject as we are, send him this e-mail. In any case, you can subscribe
to our mailing list, if you want to know about our project's progress.
DEADLINE
Submissions should be send until end of April, since our thesis has a definite deadline. Many thanks
for your attention and help.

The Millennium demo includes a full implementation of iRec, live audio streaming capabilities.
Thanks to iRec, the ProStationAudio mixing console input (RecBus) can be switched between a
local audio board or a remote audio server, accessible via Internet or a LAN. Once connected
(Miami or compatible TCP stack required), iRec lets you record live streams. During the
streaming process, ProStationAudio allows you to monitor the incoming signal and record direct-to-disk.

AHX Ripper News
Kåre Johansen recently released the absolutely
last version of his AHX-Ripper (THX-Ripper) on his homepage.
Since many of the favourite module ripper are outdated and/or no longer in development, Kåre
plans to write a new ripper (Serial Ripper). This one will offer a fuctional MUI- (perhaps ClassAct,
AmigaOS3.5) interface and support as many sound formats as possible.
Since this is impossible without support from people with the knowledge about the many sound formats,
Kåre has opened a mailing list especially for this project.
Subscribe at www.onelist.com/group/sripper/
or send an e-mail to sripper-subscribe@onelist.com.
Of course Kåre is also open for further suggestions and tips.

Hyperion to port SIN to Amiga and Linux
Hyperion has aquired the license to port "SIN" by Activision Inc. to the Amiga and Linux
platforms. "We are working on completing our Amiga port of Activisions Heretic 2", says Ben
Hermans, Manager of Hyperion. Like Heretic 2, SIN bases on IDs Quake 2, so Hyperion is optimistic
that the port can be completed by second quarter 2000. The Amiga version requires a PPC (WarpOS),
and will support Warp3D by Hyperions OpenGL implementation.

The AFD-COPYRIGHT Official Support Site had just today its

The recent visitor boom happened partly due to the fact that
so many Amiga News sites reported about the latest release.
Thanks to all news-webmasters for your support!
I collected some of the sites on the page "What's New?"
If you are interested, you can visit the AFD-Homepage at:

MorphOS status
After MorphOS got attention by small pictures on their homepage (AmigaNews reported), there is now
a small status report on the project itself:
We are currently working on rewriting as many elemental parts of the AmigaOS as possible directly in
PowerPC code. The tests of the 68k emulation have been finished already for some time, and it works
reliable with Workbench 3.1 and 3.5. CyberGraphX, the CS PPC SCSI driver, the CDrive CD-ROM file
system and other stuff has almost completely been ported natively, to achieve best possible performance
even on the current CS PPC card generation.
The ppc.library has also been completed in a full PowerPC version (means the former 68k part is native,
too), so direct compatibility to PowerUP software is ensured, and available software is working directly
without special MorphOS adjustments. For software adhering to the original PowerUP specs there
shouldn't be a problem at all.
Since everything is running directly on the PowerPC CPU, the infamous CPU context switches for 68k
AmigaOS are removed, so PowerUP software is frequently running faster. Programs with many I/O
accesses or graphics output via AmigaOS can profit from this.
We are just now testing several PowerUP software products, and will soon publish a guideline as
well as a list of successfully tested software, so PowerUP software can employed under MorphOS
without problems.
We are working on a developer release; due to several hardware defects, the release date was
sadly delayed.

Working title: "Audiomaster 2000"

We (Michael Ulbrich and myself) have taken on the sources of AudioStream, which were released

classic Audiomaster IV. We consciously don't implement special functions like 2D/3D spectrograms,
since they are of little use for the home user.
Some features are (or are planned):

Nobody knows precise details :-(. Sadly. To me it currently seems
to be the other way round. What I read from the last statements and
interviews with Bill McEwen and Fleecy Moss is that they want to
concentrate fully on TAO and their OS and do not plan to support the PPC.
Haage & Partner maintain silence in this matter. (ps)

Amiga 2K new exhibitors
The Amiga 2K Show in St. Louis will have many interesting exhibitors.
A new Amiga Developer System can be won on the show. Read the complete press release below:
Return-Path: bscharp@icon-stl.net
From: Bob Scharp
Subject: Amiga 2K More Vendors
Date: Tue, 29 Feb 2000 19:03:10 -0600 (CST)
Amiga 2K
Press Release
February 29, 2000
Prizes and more Exhibitors,
The fifth group of exhibitors is now listed on our web site at:
http://www.amiga-stl.com/show.html
In addition, we have started listing the door prizes on the
prize page.
You could be the winner of a new Amiga Developer System. That's
right, an Amiga Developer System. Amiga Inc. is going to donate
one of their brand new "Developer Systems" to be given away as
a door prize.
Now I know you're going to ask... "What's a Developer System"?
Well... you're just going to have to come to the show to find
out.
Or, perhaps you might win one of two rides in a REAL airline
simulator. What's that you ask? Nothing less than the same
thing all the airline pilots are trained in. That's right, a
real full blown airline simulator with an instructor to show you
the ropes on just how to get one of those huge airline jets
off the ground, and of course back on the ground. Lot's of
knobs, swithches, buttons and they all work. Not like a
computer simulator where you move some wimpy joy stick or click
the keyboard. This is the real thing. You sit in the cockpit,
you're trained to move ailerons, rudders and elevators. You'll
move the yoke and control all the radios, navigation systems etc.
You'll be shown how to do takeoffs and landings. Maybe we'll even
show you stalls, buffets, and what the arch looks like at night
from 3,000 feet as you fly your approach into St. Louis. Of course,
all this is simulated, it just doesnt' feel like it. Because an
airline simulator is known to make you feel like your in the real
thing. On top of that, Amigan-St. Louis will give you a real logbook
that you can write your flight times in.
There are lot's more being donated too. If your company wants
to donate prizes to Amiga 2K, simply email Bob Scharp at
bscharp@icon-stl.net and tell him what you are sending. Then
email a web banner and a discription of the prize to him. He
will list you as soon as he confirms your prizes.
Don't forget, it's not too late to exhibit at Amiga 2K, the largest
Amiga show in the Americas. Just fill out the handy exhibitor
form. Go to http://www.amiga-stl.com/show.html and click on the
"Exhibitor" button. Then fill it out. You'll be glad you exhibited.
WOW, Amiga 2K is going to be HUGE!
Regards,
Bob

Digital Almanac II update
The latest version of the astronomy software Digital Almanac II (Rev. 1.8.8) is now available for free to all
users from the author's homepage. An upload to Aminet was also done, so the Archive will soon be
available there soon.
Moreover, the author wants to thank all participants of the DA-PPC survey. The positive feedback of
the survey will therefore be rewarded. As soon as DCE starts production of the PPC boards, DA will
be released in a first trial version for WarpOS. The PPC part of the homepage will therefore be reworked
as soon as the port becomes an issue.

AudioLabs: iRec for AmigaOS, live streaming audio reciever
AudioLabs announces iRec (internet Recording), live streaming MPEG capabilities for AmigaOS! This cool
feature comes embedded in any new ProStationAudio version, starting with the forthcoming Millennium
edition.
iRec is fully functional (monitoring and direct-to-disk recording) in the new ProStationAudio demo to be
available for downloading the first week of March 2000. Every AmigaOS user is encouraged to take advantage
of this new free tool.
Thanks to iRec, the ProStationAudio mixing console input (RecBus) can be switched between a local audio
board or a remote audio server, accessible via Internet or a LAN.
Once connected (Miami or compatible TCP stack required), iRec lets you record live MPEG streams. During
the streaming process, ProStationAudio allows you to monitor the incoming signal and record direct-to-disk,
with on-the-fly conversion from MPEG to PCM.
iRec is compatible with a large number of web-stations broadcasting in MPEG, including ShoutCast (TM)
audio servers.
Millennium saves your preferred iRec URL's into an external text file so that you can easily edit/process your
database or share it with other ProStationAudio users.
The ProStationAudio editing application requires a 68040/16MB system to start with, and is optimized for
hi-end configurations including up to two video cards, two monitors and two CPUs.
For more information about ProStationAudio please refer to the official sites:
http://www.audiolabs.it (European server)
http://usa.audiolabs.it (US mirror)
http://www.emrl.com/prostationaudio/ (US distributor)

Amiga User meeting in Wolfenbuettel
After I received such a positive response in the amigaOS chat room about
the idea of a club independant amiga user meeting, I though I should follow
up on the idea.
The meeting will take place sometime in early summer (probably from
Saturday-Sunday on the 8th and 9th of July) here in Wolfenbuettel. At this
time I cannot make any statement about the program, since it is largly
dependant upon the amiga community itself. It is safe however to say that
barbequeing is on the adgenda. I will also try to get some "special guests"
to show up. First inquiries in this direction have proved to be very
positive.
We will try to keep the costs as low as possible. I will try to keep it
under 10,- DM per person. The costs however for lodging will most probably
have to be covered by everyone themselves. We may however be able to come
up with alternatives.
However before i can begin with planning, I need to know how many people
would like to attend.It would be great if you could send me an email if you
think you might be attending. (O.Tacke@surfway.de).
This is not a binding application, just a channel to voice your support.
AmiOlli.

Pictures of the MorphOS Team ;-)
At the very bottom of the MorphOS supportpage you can find "Bilder vom
MorphOS Team" (pictures from the MorphOS team), for example
Ralph Schmidt alias "Al Bundy" and every other character from Al Bundy's
surrounding. The question is what lesson should we get out of
this? That the MorphOs Team is a laugh? ;-).

New AmigaPlus has arrived
(German print mag)
The new release of AmigaPlus has arrived. At first to remember: The
magazine is now called AmigaPlus powered by AmigaOS. This is due to the
fact that AmigaOS, who have taken over AmigPlus, also took over the
structure of distribution of AmigaPlus. Let's put it another way: It is
labeled AmigaPlus, but it has AmigaOS inside ;-).
Highlights from issue 03/2000:
News goals of Amiga: Bill McEwen in Frankfurt
Fleecy Moss talking to Amiga Plus
The G3-Hope: met@box interview
Linus talks: An interview with Linus Torvalds
Linux distributions for the Amiga
In detail: Installing Linux on the Amiga
and much more

that seams to be strange or a bug immediately.
The most important changes in detail:
hyperCOMx.device:
Only internal changes since the 2.95B2.
hyperPAR.device:
Only internal changes since the 2.95B2.
vmcresource.library:
Amiga-Hardware recognition have been improved as well as the internal

Voyager 3 statusreport
Since the last update we have worked on a list of bugs and have done
some changes. Right now we are concentrating mostly on finishing
Javascript support and the improvement of the API plugins. Good news are
certainly the fact that Emmanuel Lesueur has made his Apdf PDF-Viewer
available as a V ³-Plugin.
Vflash has been rewritten in many parts and is a lot faster now than the
earlier version. M68k version are already working very well. Zapek is
working hard to finish the PPC-version.
During the next 2 weeks there will be a new Voyager-Version.
Imagedecoder and Vflash-updates might be available earlier eventually.

Amiga Forum completely reworked
We have reworked the graphics as well as the contents of our forum. Take
a look at it and get your own opinion. Questions, suggestions and new
ideas are always welcome.
The forum is, indeed, one of the subpages that already has been translated to English. In fact, it offers a German and an English
"chapter". The English one, however, has seen only a dozen posts or so.
The forum is for you; use it! State your point of view, ask your
questions, tell us what you think of our service amiga-news.de. Aside
from providing valuable (and motivating) feedback for us, the editors,
it might turn this forum from a dusty place into just the place to post
to! (And yes, I am reading the forum myself regulary!) (mb)
