MorphOS: Software directory of the Czech Pegasos User Group
The Czech Pegasos User Group has been offering a software directory for MorphOS users on its web pages for some time. More than 750 PPC-native or MorphOS-compatible programs are categorized.
In the meantime, the directory is also available in an English version. The complete data set is now managed by a MySQL database, so that search queries are possible. Furthermore, those who register can themselves take part in the construction and maintenance of the contents right away. (cg) (Translation: cad)

Spreadsheet software: ignition 1.0 beta 1 released
Press release - Since the development of ignition proceeds much slower than originally anticipated, we decided to release an up-to-date and not restricted beta version.
Your support should push the further development forward. But we're also
relying on your help to be able to complete the product. Particularly, we
need help with the following things:
- Revising and completing of the available documentation
- Translation of that documentation to German and English - other
languages are welcome, too, of course
- Translations of the program texts themselves
- New and more icons that can be used in the tool bars
- Reports of existing bugs in the whole package
At least the tree most contributing people will get a free version of
<ignition> as a compensation for their help. A mailing list will be
available, a bug tracker already is.
We're looking forward to your contributions! (snx)

According to the well-known hardware developer it lost about 100.000 Euro with the C-One project after the developer Jeri Ellsworth had given already paid work to a different product - the C64DTV - and thus the C-One stayed incompletely.
