Amiga Society: BBoAH and LBoAS updated
Amiga Society has updated the "Big Book of Amiga Hardware" (BBoAH) as well as the "Little Book of Amiga Software" (LBoAS).
Additionally Horst Diebel made a statement regarding "Schlachtfeld":
"After some people gave up Schlachtfeld already here is a brief statement:
It is correct that we actually are at some kind of a dead point. There are one/two errors which simply seem to don't want to be found for any reason.
And additionally we don't have that much time - so solving this problem will not be too soon. In parallel we develop the new Amiga map editor for the new Schlachtfeld firstly. For the weekend I am looking forward to publish some new pictures - actually a playable demo can't be published yet - unfortunately!"

News from Merlancia (Update)
Update 22.12.2002:
I have completely removed the text and corresponding links of this report,
because it became clear through telephone calls and emails that it was not
[fully] about a news matter, but about a private conflict that has no
business being publically aired.

Astronomie: Digital Almanac III V5.0 available
After months of development the new version of the astronomy program Digital Almanac III has been finished.
In the moment only the German version is available. Because of the enormous amount of data the new version is only on CD-ROM available.
About 30 MB of new data has been added. The sidegrade price for registered users will be 10 EUR.
Some CD-ROMs of V5.0 have been delivered, but without German documentation. This can be downloaded from the homepage.
The English version will be delivered later, because the documentation will be finished soon.
New features:
- Leaner program
- New clear GUI layout
- Integration of Tyco-2 and GSC-2 star catalogue via Internet
- "Digitized Sky Survey"
- More online information from different object classes available
- Integration of Hertzsprung-Russell-diagram for spectralanalysis of stars
- Integration of the Hipparchos star catalogue as cross index
- Integration of the "Virtual Moon Atlas" (25 MB data)
- Integration of the Jupiter satellites J6-J13
- and many more...
This is the last version of DA III. It is based upon OS3.9 and needs a gfx-board and a lot of RAM. AGA will not be supported any more.
The last version for smaller Amigas and AGA users is V4.8.
All Amiga CPUs from 68020/FPU up to 68060 and PPC are supported. It also runs with WinUAE, AmigaXL and Amithlon.
Have fun with the new version

Catweasel Software Updates
The Windows drivers for the PC-versions of the Catweasel controller
(ISA and the new MK3 PCI/Flipper versions) have been updated. The
most important change is the support for C64-disks, minor bugs have
been fixed in the diskimage-tool. The new combination of programs
also breaks a small record: A C64-disk is read completely in slightly
more than 9 seconds. The archive also contains some textfiles for
programmers who want to take advantage of the interfaces or the
SID of the controller.
Download: cw_win_pci.zip (115 KB)
The Linux drivers have also been adapted to the MK3 PCI/Flipper version.
Closer information about this can be found on
Michael 'Rawstyle' Krause's website.
Tim Mann has also adapted his cw2dmk tool to the new controller.
DMK is a file format used by TRS-80 emulator programs. Find out
more here.

WWW: Privoxy V3.0.0 for MorphOS
Jörg Strohmayer has released version 3.0.0 of his MorphOS port of the WWW proxy
'Privoxy'.
This is a multiuser proxy with extended filter features to protect your own
private sphere, filter Web contents, manage cookies, control access and
filter out adverts, banners, pop-ups and other unwanted contents.
As this is Jörg Strohmayer's first program for MorphOS/PPC, and he has no
developers documentation about MorphOS, and the public MorphOS GCC archives are
incomplete (parts of libnix are missing), he is asking to send bug reports directly to him by eMail
(joergs+mn@expires-2002-12-31.nexgo.de)
and not use the bug tracker at Sourceforge, except if the bug is also present in
the AmigaOS/m68k port.
