AmigaOS4: UFRaw 0.22 for AmiCygnix
Edgar Schwan has ported the RAW graphics editor UFRaw to his X11 environment AmiCygnix (screenshot). UFRaw is a tool for editing and converting RAW graphics. It is based on Dave Coffin's "DCRaw" and supports a lot of formats.
UFRaw can be used as separate tool or as plugin for the picture editing software "The Gimp". While installing UFRaw, "Gimp" is detected and the installation of the plugin is offered.
Features:
- Supports various RAW image formats (based on "DCRaw V9.26").
- Can be used as a Gimp plug-in (needs an already installed Gimp 2.6 package).
- Is able to read and write Exif data (exiv2 V0.25). The tool "exiv2" is also included and can be called via a shell.
- Supports color management with "Little CMS 2" (lcms2 V2.1).
- A new version of "Lensfun" (0.3.2) with the support of many new cameras and lenses is integrated. Lensfun is a library for the removal and simulation of photographic lens distortions.
- New features compared to the last version 0.19:
- Saving now also supports the file format "fits" (Flexible Image Transport System), a format developed by NASA.
- Support for JPEG2000 graphics is now integrated.
Supported formats:
- Unidentified Flying Raw (*.ufraw)

OpenStreetMap viewer: MUIMapparium 0.8
Marcus 'ALB42' Sackrow's OpenStreetMap viewer Mapparium has been updated to version 0.8 for all Amiga systems.
He wrote: "One disadvantage of writing a program relying on web resources is, that you have to update that program everytime the webresource is changed/updated. In the next days the search for MUIMapparium will break again, and the Find by IP/ Find me is broken a while before already.
So I updated MUIMapparium to Version 0.8 I also added some small new features, like some more shortcuts and also by popular demand to jump automatically to the first search result. Best update soon before the search function does not work anymore.
Also the 68k freepascal compiler got some updates which hopefully improve the stability and speed of the m68k-amiga Version."

Windows: MagicWB style
Sylvio Kurze wrote: As passionate Amiga user I never get used to the look and feel of Windows. I missed out the "good old days" when there were warm and comfortable colours as well as sharp buttons wizh high contrast. For me who has started with AmigaOS 2.1 and MagicWB, the excellent design is the main featute defining the Amiga Workbench.
Therefore I decided to start a project for bringing this look and feel to Windows.
