AROS: Bounty for adapting Zune to MUI 3.8
Neil Cafferkey has accepted the bounty project (currently donated with 1020 US-Dollar) for adapting and improving Zune. The goal is to adapt the open source clone of MUI to version 3.8 of it by adding all missing features and deleting all difference.
With this step porting software to AROS or developing cross-platform applications (AmigaOS, AROS, MorphOS) is supposed to be facilitated. Cafferkey will try to finish the project until the end of July.

AmigaOS 4: RadeonHD driver 0.32 for Sam460 / AmigaOne 500
ACube Systems has published a new version of the RadeonHD driver for PCIe- graphic boards written by Hans de Ruiter. If you did not get the update via eMail then please use the ACube-contact formular.
Bug fixes in version 0.32:
- Some R700 GPUs were locking up when compositing "large" vertex arrays. FIXED
- Screens that were larger than the display resolution were garbled. FIXED
- R500 vertex array clipping was one pixel larger than it was supposed to be (could cause the right-hand edge to spill over to the left most column of pixels). FIXED
- Fixed an R500 compositing bug that could cause corruption if one compositing operation rapidly draws directly over the previous one
- WaitTOF() and similar functions could cause the machine to lockup when called from a task with a priority >= 1. FIXED

AROS: Workbench replacement Scalos ported
Matthias Rustler has ported the Workbench replacement Scalos to AROS. Because Scalos requires DOS-packages, the port is only available for AROS-systems with the ABI-V1 binary interface.
In a statement on aros-exec.org the author explained the problems which still exists: Drag'n Drop as well as the "Lasso" for choosing several icons do not work. The AROS-icons do not look very nice because the format of the pictogramm is still not supported. Additionally the content of a directory is not listed. Then simply choose "update" from the menu list.

AROS: Patch 03 for Icaros Desktop 1.3.3
For version 1.3.3 of his AROS-distribution Icaros Desktop, Paolo Besser has published a new update which includes new system files as well as the latest PaperCuts.
Chganges:
- fix for commodities like FKey: they don't appear iconified on the desktop anymore
- fix for italian translation: it will now be re-enabled in Wanderer
- added iconify button to Zune windows title bar (must be enabled by user)
- fix for ICE, Icaros Classic and Icaros Blue themes to support iconify button
The following problems are known:
- Wookie Chat, PSI prefs and other programs crash on de-iconification
- InstallAROS (and maybe others) crash on iconification
- SimpleMail crashes if double-clicked on its custom AppIcon
- no fixes to problems reported with icon.library
- iconify gadget has no image in other Icaros decorations, so default "3.1" rectangle will be used
