Spiegel Online: Troll you, Trolls!
In an online offer of the news magazine Spiegel, Frank Patalong authored a comment about the theme "Behavior on the Internet" that was very interesting for a few users: "the Mecklenburg-Vorpommerns Prime Minister Harald Ringstorff didn't want to let it pass: an email writer called him an "arrogant, ignorant hysteric."" Ringstorff complained about the insult. Hopefully a school didn't do that - neither the one nor the other. Read the complete article at Spiegel Online under the title link. (nba) (Translation: dm)

Localization for the latest WinUAE version
With the latest version of WinUAE Toni Wilen has reactivated the old "WinUAE_language.dll" system which has not been used since almost three years but allows to localize the GUI of WinUAE.
Steven Weiser, a WinUAE beta tester, just started to build a German translation right after he got the SDK. The translation is available at this
homepage.
If there are any issues with that file, Steven is reachable at Borg_no.one@gmx.net. (cg) (Translation: ub)
